Place of Weeping

A compelling and timely drama of strife in South Africa's oppressive regime. Lowly paid, a black fram laborer steals a chicken to feed his family and is beaten to death by his white boss. Grace, the victim's spirited sister, is determined to find a way to justice despite the powerlessness of the stricken black community. A journalist takes up her cuase, fighting a lack of support from the clergy and the enmity of the white farmers. There is more violence and while the oppressed as a group are unable to change the evil system, they can at least seek revenge through individual confrontations. Vivid portrayals by a talented cast and stunning cinematography enhance the tension-filled combat against apartheid.
