"Changes can come from the power of many, but only when the many come together to form that which is invincible... the power of one."

Awesome film about the power that one person can have in trying to change the world, but how he keeps meeting defeat. Victory is achieved, but he has nothing left.

Released on DVD this week in the UK, and highly recommended viewing. Watched this at school as part of a class on Racism (along with Mississippi Burning) and this was the better of the two.

Haven't seen this in a long time. very moving. Another South African liberation story. So many of these stories being told to the world carried the liberation struggle a long way.
