A new documentary exploring the crucial role of international support in ending apartheid is expected to be screened on Thursday.
The documentary aims to spotlight the global solidarity in South Africa's liberation.
Zoetic Management, in collaboration with Moja Multimedia, will host the premiere screening of 'Legacy of Hope, Freedom Through Solidarity: The Russia, Cuba, South African Chapter,' a new documentary exploring the crucial role of international support in ending apartheid.
Operational Manager at Moja Multimedia, Grant Harmse said "Legacy of Hope" features interviews with prominent figures such as SACP General Secretary Solly Mapaila, Former State Security Minister MK Commander Ronnie Kasrils, Human Rights Commission Chairperson Chris Nissen, former MP Hilda Ndude, former Deputy Minister of International Relations and Cooperation Marius Fransman, as well as trade union leaders, and former exiles.
'This story is told by voices, voices that carried the weight of a nation's pain and dreams. The eroded hands of resistance. The whispered prayers of mothers who waited at windows for sons who never returned. The resolute voices of the angry youth chanting liberation songs in townships heavy with smoke, fear, and resolve.'
