Description
|
|
|
|
A big hit at the Toronto Film Festival in 2006, this apartheid-era thriller tells the true story of Patrick Chamusso (Derek Luke), who, in 1980, was falsely accused of sabotaging the South African oil refinery where he worked. After he and his wife are tortured by government agents, Chamusso becomes radicalized and joins the military wing of the African National Congress. Tim Robbins plays the soulless cop who is determined to catch him. The DVD comes with commentary by Robbins, Luke, director Phillip Noyce, Patrick Chamusso, and screenwriter Shawn Slovo, daughter of anti-apartheid activist Joe Slovo.
