On 16 June 1976, Vusi Mavuso took part in a student protest march. He witnessed the killing of children in Soweto. Now, he is a trade union organiser and political activist and, as a result, has spent time in South African prisons. He and the recently-released ANC veteran Walter Sisulu agree that confinement has only strengthened their determination to fight apartheid. The two men are separated by 45 years, but they share similar views about the future of their country. Editor VASTIANA BELFON

Remembering the Future Despite Latin America's violent history and continuing social and political problems from drugs to foreign debt, its many cultural fusions have created one of the most exciting artistic spaces in the modem world. This film looks at the mixture of cultural traditions in music, dance, painting and literature, and at how the arts are responding to the violence. It ends in Medellin, Colombia, the now notorious base of a drugs cartel where earlier this year 6,000 people voted for their favourite love poems in a poetic protest against the escalating violence about them.
