It's Sunday morning. A boy is drinking tea in the kitchen. Next to him is Maggie, the black maid.

The author, Matine de la Harpe, is a South African woman who used to make documentaries for television. The film has a professional feel to it, with appropriate camerawork and a condensed structure. Her ability to get her message across in 10 minutes is impressive.
