This South African-made film is about Solomon Mahlangu (Thabo Rametsi), a young man who struggles with his political identity in 1970s South Africa. A hero of the struggle against apartheid, Mahlangu would become an international icon of South Africa’s liberation. Discussion moderated by Professor Teresa Barnes.
