Dressing the Princess follows Denisha and Alex, two young conservationists from the Cape Flats, as they work to restore Princess Vlei - a wetland rich in cultural, spiritual, and ecological significance. Through grassroots activism, they reclaim this sacred space, challenge apartheid spatial planning, and reconnect their community to land, nature, and ancestral memory.
