THE REAL DISTRICT 9
Tue, Mar 9 2010 03:29
Residents in Chiawelo, Soweto, where District 9 was shot, feel disappointed and let down after the film crew left the slum. As in the film, the residents in the real District 9 are also forced to move to community housing. Some resist the move, others are angry because they have waited many years for a much needed relocation. Joseph Shimange worked on the film set and claims the film crew still owes him money.
Thembi and her Daughter Rilaweta just bought a DVD-player to see the film in which she featured as an extra.
John Masingi has lived in this shack since 1990. He has waited 8 years to be relocated to community housing.
Benedict Sikaza features as a prostitute in District 9. The film gave us the hope that things will change, she says, but now we are forgotten again.
