It is not often that you get to spend time with an undertaker. This piece is a glimpse into the world of Mr Dunga, a funeral practitioner based in a township 15km outside of Cape Town called Gugulethu.

Rather his funeral home reflects the realities of his everyday experience as he manages death in a context of poverty. A reality he takes on with grace, humour and dignity.
