Carte Blanche: Prison production – WATCH

The 26 October episode of Carte Blanche takes viewers inside an extraordinary creative breakthrough within South Africa’s prison system, where inmates are transforming their confinement into art.

The programme explores a groundbreaking stage production created and performed entirely by prisoners, including an opera singer, an artist, and an avid reader, each using storytelling to reclaim their voices and identities.

In this South African first, the production offers a rare glimpse into life behind bars, revealing how talent, discipline, and hope can flourish even in the most unlikely places.

Carte Blanche is a South African investigative journalism television series that airs on M-Net every Sunday at 19:00.

Its first episode aired on 21 August 1988 and over the last 34-plus years has earned credibility among South African viewers for its investigation into corruption, consumer issues, and current events.
