Red Dust


Set during the time of the Truth and Reconciliation hearings here in South Africa, a politician who was an activist gets to confront a policeman who tortured him years ago. The politician has a lawyer, an ex-South African who has returned from America after many years. Things get interesting when the politician's claims of innocence begin to look suspect. Overseas reviews were favourable.
