A social experiment in the form of an art installation of "caged human" is currently taking place in Johannesburg and Cape Town.
After the experiment where actors have been caged, a film called “Free Range Humans” will be released. The film is an original, eight-episode digital content series from Corona Studios. The series follows eight extraordinary people – including two South Africans, Zandile Ndhlovu and Roushanna Gray – who left their unfulfilling indoor lives to follow their passions and live an authentic, purpose-driven life close to nature.

Guest: Amahle Mtenganya – Actor who is part of the activation, and is caged in Sandton City
