Season 2
Freedom is Not Free tells stories about freedom, chosen on the basis of what democracy promised versus what people's expectations were, with the underlying statement that freedom does not come free. It has a price-tag, implications or some form of cost.
Season 2 explores the costs endured for South Africans to enjoy their freedom in 2016, 22 years into democracy. Some of the themes in this season are language, xenophobia, social media, age of consent, hair and skin as well as entrepreneurship and conspicuous consumption.
This season peels away the layers of challenges that most South Africans are currently faced with.
Freedom is Not Free is aimed at SABC1's youth market and talks to them directly through content, relevant characters, style, format and the use of archive material with the inclusion of social, sports, political and legislature heads in an attempt to hear relevant voices.
Produced by Tshedza Media, the series was executive produced and directed by Milly Takalani Mulaudzi. The music was by Ms. Isis.
