(Die grond onthou)

Content: Sonia Roman (77) is preparing to move to a new home in Protea Village, which is more than just a housing scheme for her. Protea Village represents justice for the deep pain she has carried since childhood, when her family – along with an entire coloured community – was forcibly relocated by the apartheid government from their lush paradise next to Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens to Heideveld, a barren township on the Cape Flats. Sixty years and several court cases later, claimants such as Sonia, Boy and Nellie have their land back. Together with their descendants, they are now moving to one of the most affluent suburbs in Cape Town, Bishopscourt. However, this means that Sonia and the others must navigate the complexities of a single land claim shared among multiple family members. The high property taxes in Bishopscourt present another challenge. Will they be able to afford spending their final years there?
