Tsotsi

WAFS invites you this Sunday to see the screening of "Tsotsi", a film by Gavin Hood and based on the famous novel by Athol Fugard. This Oscar winning film treads on the topics of poverty, choice and redemption...

Synopsis:


Tsotsi is a poor young man living in a South African slum. Surviving by stealing and mugging, his existence comes to a turning point during a thieving expedition to the suburbs. As he tries to steal a car, a woman tries to stop him with little regard for her own life. In the struggle, he shoots her and drives off, only later to realise that the woman was not fighting for a possession, but for the little babe crying in the back seat...


To help you make up your mind, here's a link to the trailer and our poster:
