Reviews:

Bazzjazz (9/10)

This film written by an old Afrikaans author called Andre Brink and centers around a political activist. Who was a political freedom fighter trying to get the apartheid system ended and South Africa to be a total democratic society. Steve Biko , was a hero and is still one today. And a martyr at the same time as he was allegedly thrown off the Police Building after being tortured.

Marlon Brando plays the Lawyer !
