Meanwhile in Mamelodi
Extension 11 - one of many districts in the Mamelodi township in South Africa. Running water, electricity and paved roads are nowhere to be found. But even here there is of course daily life, which the Mtsweni family masters with routine and ingenuity. Father Steven puts all his energy into his small kiosk, thus keeping his family afloat and enabling his children an education. His daughter "Mosquito" is fighting her way through the confusion of puberty and dreams of a career as a professional footballer or paleontologist. She is part of a new generation that believes in the chance of a career and a better life. Will the 2010 Soccer World Cup hosted in their country have an impact on the daily life of the family? A portrait of a South African family, their hopes, disappointments, dreams and realities.
