This chapter follows on form an initial investigation of the South African film, Tsotsi (2005), which examined translation strategies in the subtitled English version of the film, in comparison with those employed in the French subtitled and dubbed version (Pettit 2011). The notion of code-switching and language variation is the main focus here. It builds on the previous study by including the DVDs released for American and South African audiences. In addition, the analyses is extended to the subtiteled and dubbed version of a second South African film Hijack Stories (2000).
