Description

This anthology is a journey through the struggle.

Asinamali! shows how the people were divided and fought to eliminate this division. Sarafina! looks at how the children took a stand and fought apartheid physically. Township Fever! describes how the adults joined the struggle. Before, they had been afraid of losing their jobs, but now they were realising that work was not as important as freedom. Then came Magic at 4a.m.! which showed the desperate measures the government was using in order to maintain its already crumbling apartheid empire.
