Two families, two social and cultural contexts contiguous in space and time, are totally confined and divided not only by precise political choices, but also by the actions of individual people. In apartheid South Africa, an in itself paradoxical situation becomes normality for decades and the same subsequent turning point overturns prejudices and expectations. Entire communities suffer the consequences, adapting and changing, despite a rigid distinction destined to implode under the pressure of new generations.
