Synopsis

A Catholic Priest helps a Colored elope with a Zulu princess, but during their journey tragedy strikes. Befriended by a White Member of Parliament and his wife, the two get jobs, safety in biracial Cape Town to raise a family even though some racial segregation persists. But, when the hard-right Afrikaner party takes legal control of the government, South Africa adopts Apartheid to permanently separate the races and to form a White Republic--though Whites are outnumbered twelve to one. Within the country, forces led by Nelson Mandela attempt change through non-violence only to be thwarted by government violence which begets more violence and sabotage. The Apartheid government responds with harsh punishments and the suspension of democratic rights of due process. Is a race-based civil war brewing? Outside the country, the United Nations works to end Apartheid by isolating South Africa. Now, the lives of everyone opposing Apartheid are at risk. Is there no escape? Is there a lesson here for America?
