A race track in Kraaifontein. A country under siege.
Stolen Ground is a raw and unsettling documentary uncovering the violent land invasion that destroyed Tygerberg Raceway in July 2020, and the silent epidemic of land grabs spreading across South Africa.
The documentary dives into the stories the media won’t touch — the real impact of land invasions on law-abiding citizens, livelihoods, and the future of property rights in South Africa.
For nearly 30 years, the Tygerberg Raceway in Kraaifontein brought people together — racers, spectators, families, small businesses. In July 2020, that ended.
A violent land invasion unfolded in real time. Within a week, the entire raceway was gone. Flattened. Occupied.
They came without warning. In seven days, it was gone.
Watch the full documentary
It didn’t start with Tygerberg. And it won’t end there.
Your home. Your land. Your rights.
All it takes is one week – and no one to stop it.
Stolen Ground is a warning. And a reckoning.
We need your help to dig deeper
Stolen Ground was produced with R0 budget. No funding. No sponsors. Just basic equipment, personal risk, and a mission to expose what legacy media refuses to report.
But there’s so much more to uncover.
We’re turning our cameras to Grabouw, the epicentre of the largest land grab in South Africa, and Hermanus, where violence and intimidation have defined the most brutal land invasion yet.
If you believe South Africans deserve to know what’s really happening, help us fund our next project. As a supporter, you’ll get early access to the next documentary and receive a Producer credit for your contribution.
Goal: R400 000
