As tensions of apartheid spread across South Africa, many students revolts to massive stone throw, a demonstration that comes in a wake of the introduction of Afrikaans language as a means of teaching. This sparks riots among school age young people who have resolved to do what it takes for freedom to come tomorrow. In a township of Soweto, a group of students, led by a beautiful and intelligent young girl, Sarafina, mastermind a plot to rise against the apartheid regime by vehemently rejecting the proposal to have Afrikaans as a medium of instruction. This angers the white people and results in a massive unrest of the students and those others supporting them. Meanwhile, Sarafina's mother accepts a job of a housekeeper in a white household and it angers Sarafina. Following the unrest of students and their possible torture and trial, Sarafina is released from prison, reunites with some of the colleagues and composes a "Freedom is Coming Tomorrow" song.
Leave your thoughts about Sarafina!.
| Hartford CourantMalcolm JohnsonWhile Sarafina! is unabashedly propagandistic on behalf of its young black heroes, even the viewpoint of the murdered black constable can be felt -- with Ngema himself as the charming yet unprincipled quisling. |
| Common Sense MediaAndrea BeachSobering musical about apartheid includes brutal violence. |
| Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN)Bob BloomA rather bloody musical that captures the horror that was apartheid. |
| User ReviewEsther LThis film is deep! Arpartite ruins lives in truth! |
| User ReviewXiomara EGreat historical and inspirational movie. The music in here was beautiful. Definitely a must see! |
| User ReviewSiobhan CExcellent Acting and activist film. Get involved people! |
| User ReviewKogos KProbably Whoopi's greatest role ever eclipsed by Leleti's outstanding Award deserving performance. Highly recommend watching. |
| User ReviewSafiya HThis movie is a powerful and gripping film about the struggles of young South Africa in the midst of Apartheid. It is a captivating musical with voices and dances which are out of this world.... Nelson Mandela must have been proud!!! ;-) Whoopi Goldberg was moving and Leleti Khumalo is awesome. Both women are beautiful and I love Khumalo in ALL her movies..... A definite must see!! |
| User ReviewVenus Hnelson mandela we need to come together as black people stop puttin the blame on others . |
