A little About Kevin Harris Productions
Kevin Harris is a South African who has lived and worked as an independent filmmaker in South Africa for the past forty four years.
In November 2007, Kevin Harris was awarded the Golden Horn Film & TV Award for Lifetime Achievement in Documentary Film-making by the National Film & Video Foundation of South Africa.
His independent career began in October 1979 when he was fired by the Apartheid controlled SABC TV regime for ensuring the uncensored broadcast of his documentary “BARA”, which went behind the scenes of an overcrowded Baragwanath Hospital and exposed the oppressive social/environmental conditions under which the community of Soweto was forced to live in the township.
