Peter, in for the murder of his step-father, has survived South Africa’s most notorious prison, Pollsmoor, and foresworn his membership of the powerful ‘28s’. With that behind him, hindering him, Peter must work hard to reintegrate with the community. He has a passion, music, and will use this to turn himself from victim of the ghetto to a hip-hop artist. Valley follows Peter from the first day of his release and delivers unprecedented, uncensored access into the life of a man born, it seems, without a chance. Undaunted, Peter faces the challenges his ex-con status presents, immerses himself in music and creates a cathartic, triumphant refrain to describe the apparent chaos that comes with breaking cycles. Will he survive and redeem himself in the eyes of his family and community?
