Tsotsi, is a 2005 film from South Africa. It follows a young delinquent and highlights some of the various robbing sprees he goes on. Additionally, it is clearly a critical analysis of South African crime culture. Tsotsi, the main character decides to keep the baby he found in the Mercedes Benz he stole, the baby whose mother Tsotsi shot.
South Africa is hosting the 2010 Fifa World Cup, the world's largest and most significant sports event. Unfortunately Ireland, was eliminated by France. But, now back to South Africa, which is ridden with crime and violence, prompted by the extreme poverty they live in.
The similarities between, US and South African cultures is limited. The crime culture of each is somewhat similar, as they both involve similar structures, based upon the various cultures of each. Also, I don't relate much to the movie, because I do not belong to a gang. Furthermore, I live above the poverty line.
