In the narrow cobbled streets of Bo-Kaap, an hour before the call to prayer echoes at sunset, young people begin to set tyres alight.
Traditionally, the Islamic holy month of Ramadan is a time of community spirit and peace in the Cape Town suburb. As the time nears for the fast to be broken at dusk, families prepare food to share with their neighbours.
But this year, young people are upholding another tradition which they inherited from their elders: a battle to protect their homes in the inner city from private developers who see the appeal of prime land in Bo-Kaap.
