After spending some time in Namibia, Yunus returned to South Africa and moved from hand drawn work to digital media and joined a small TV group’Times Media TV’. The company became very successful and for seven years he designed opening sequences, logos and TV proposals. Yunus decided to venture into a project of his own and responded to a call from the SABC, inviting black documentary filmmakers to make films about white people. Yunus studied Fine Art at University of Durban (Westville.) in 1985/86. Although he failed to complete his tertiary studies, his art and painting background led him to paint banners for various political organizations. He subsequently became involved in NGO work for Adult Literacy and the South African Council for Higher Education.’The Glow of White Women is his first film.
