Nominated for six Naledi Awards When Swallows Cry interweaves three stories set in Africa, or about African migrants and refugees. One story features a Canadian teacher - initially assumed to be an American - who is captured by a group of bandits in a West African country. He is held for ransom to generate the funds required to develop the region in which he is held. A second story features two Zimbabwean teachers who flee the economic hardships of their country in a boat heading to Fiji where they will not require visas for at least three months. However, the boat ventures into Australian waters and they are held at a detention centre for illegal immigrants, and are threatened with immediate deportation to Zimbabwe. The third story tells of a Somalian who leaves his war-torn country for South Africa, only to experience brutal xenophobic violence that obliges him to seek refuge in America. He obtains a legitimate US visa but is hounded at the port of entry; one of his tormentors is an African America official, a descendant of African slaves, but whose job it is to prevent "undesirables" entering America, and threatening their security. These stories, featuring three actors playing contrasting characters in the three different playlets, are multi-layered and raise numerous themes about contemporary mobility. The stories comment on each other, not necessarily in sequence, but as a whole.
Powerhouse songwriters, big-hearted entrepreneurs and unstoppable 16-year-old twins from Chicago, Carly and Martina, share their brand new single and summer anthem: 'Block His Number.'

Carly and Martina won't accept when doors are shut in their face, and live out the mantra 'no' just means 'not yet.' The video for 'Block His Number' is completely self-styled and co-directed by Carly and Martina. CelebMix, who premiered the video, says that the autonomy the twins had over the creative process 'goes to show how much effort they are willing to put in for their music career.'
