Description
Drama starring Donald Sutherland as a schoolteacher who has been insulated all his life from the horrors of apartheid in his native South Africa.
When the son of Ben du Toit (Sutherland)'s black gardener is arrested and beaten as a result of a schoolboy protest in Soweto, at first he imagines the police must have had their reasons.
However, the boy is picked up again and this time he doesn't come back.
Ben discovers that the boy was killed simply to gratify the violent urges of Captain Stolz (Jürgen Prochnow), a special branch policeman, and so he hires human rights lawyer Ian McKenzie (Marlon Brando).
With Ben determined to take action, he becomes alienated from his white friends and neighbours, as well as members of his family.
The cast also includes Janet Suzman, Zakes Mokae and Susan Sarandon.
