one of the best movies i accidentaly came across

Well after watching the beautiful movie cry the beloved country, i wanted to watch more of South African movies,just to say i was not disappointed, this movie takes me back to old South Africa, it also shows the cultural diversity of South Africa, I still wonder how races survived back then, the Afrikaners were bad but never missed going to church
