Desire Marea ‘Be Free’ (Music Video)

Project Description:

The music video portrays a romantic relationship between two Black men, whose sensually-rendered love plays out against the hostile backdrop of South Africa’s hyper-masculine taxi gangs.

As the artist explained to Dazed Magazine: “It is important for me to tell a love story that carries all the nuances that paint a true picture of what it means to be a Black South African man, a Black South African gay man, a Black South African Zulu gay man. All these descriptors helped me navigate the cryptic cartographies of time in a quest to find myself in history.”
