I grew up in Apartheid South Africa. This movie depicts how the black population was treated during the Apartheid era...especially during the introduction of the group areas act (when the aliens were reloacted), the blacks (The Prawns) were round up and relocated and treated in the same manner. The ET's(The Prawns) in this movie were treated much more kindly if you ask me. So i think this movie is a clever depiction of what Apartheid SA was like.
