| Video Discription | The Civil Wars held a contest for filmmakers to create the official video for the song, "20 Years" from their debut album, Barton Hollow. This video, from South African production company, Innerview Productions, was the winner. Here's what the creators of the video had to say: "Under the apartheid regime in South Africa many Native South Africans were dispossessed of their land and were forced to leave their families to earn a living and pay taxes by working as cheap labour in the mines across the country. They were banned by law from bringing wives and children with them to the mines as they were considered "superfluous appendages" Many of these families were torn apart for extended periods of time, many died of mining related diseases, while some returned to their families after years or even decades apart. The video depicts a Xhosa newlywed couple whose lives are separated for economic and political reasons as the husband leaves to work in the mines to sustain his family financially." Thanks to Innerview Productions and all the other participants, and thanks to Genero.tv for partnering on the contest!
