Plot summary

A White enclave in Johannesburg, South Africa, in the 1960s. Molly Roth, 13 years old, is the daughter of leftist parents, and she must piece together what's happening around her when her father disappears one night, barely evading arrest, and, not long after, her mother is detained by the authorities. Some of Molly's White friends turn against her, and her family's friendships with Blacks take on new meaning. Relationships are fragile in the world of apartheid. How will she manage?

The cinematography and acting in this film are both excellent, and the overall message of this film is one of hope and resilience in the face of adversity. It's not an easy film to watch, but it's certainly one that is worth the experience
