THE BATTLE FOR JOHANNESBURG captures the changing face of a city preparing to host the 2010 FIFA World Cup. It's a tale of property developers vying for sections of the crumbling city with renewed excitement, of a city council determined to create a world class city and ultimately of how this affects the hundreds of thousands of people who have made the city slums their home. With the eyes of the world on South Africa, the film raises universal questions such as, does urban development have to mean gentrification, and is it possible to create a world class city for all?
