Asinandawo – We Have No Place

Asinandawo chronicles the living conditions of hostel dwellers across Durban, capturing the complex dynamics of family life, single motherhood, and community resilience within structures historically built for male migrant labor. From the violence-ridden Glebelands Hostel in Umlazi to Durban's oldest hostel, KwaMashu Hostel, and the neglected KwaMakhutha Hostel, the film reveals how limited resources, systemic injustice, and pervasive violence shape daily life for residents. Framed through the lens of key housing activists from Ubunye bamaHostela, the documentary highlights how hostel communities navigate these challenges, reclaiming agency and envisioning alternative forms of care, governance, and belonging. Asinandawo elevates the stories of those often erased from urban narratives, presenting hostels not only as sites of struggle but also as spaces of resilience, resistance, and human dignity.
