For the South African diaspora and for those of us still here, a movie has just arrived on our screens that takes us on a nostalgia trip of note with accompanying music that you quickly realise has been the soundtrack to most of our lives. It also reminds us of just how weird things were back in the South African seventies and more importantly, just how far we’ve come since then. It’s great and it’s called ‘Searching for Sugarman’. So if you’re reading this out there on some other far-flung corner of the planet, look out for it. It’s an amazing story. It might even make you homesick.
