Wake up call

This movie captured the mood of the country at that time, with some of the events paying themselves in modern South Africa. I remember the warning from Pedro about the war in this country, he said what was happening in Mozambique will be nothing compared to what will happen in this country. How prophetic, at this point the powder keg is ready. Just one spark and the country will burn.

In a time of violence

The line was seen internationally as 'In a time of violence.' I'm still convinced this is one of the best Telemovies I have seen and certainly from South Africa. Vusi Kunene is superb and it's a place for some very well know South African actors. Overall, keeps you on the edge throughout and never a dull moment. Not to mention it's very realistic take on post-apartheid South Africa. Good score on the series. Highly recommended.

When the first episode of the mini-series aired in July, 1994, thousands of Zulu hostel dwellers, supporters of the Inkatha Freedom Party, stormed South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) headquarters. They threatened the cast with violence; the rival African National Congress (ANC) reported eleven deaths related to the telecast. CCV, the arm of SABC which broadcasts specifically to the Black population, banned the remaining two episodes. But a week later, after a nationwide protest, CCV reversed its decision and broadcast the entire series to a record audience.
