Athlone ’85 tells the story of a student’s rebellious actions during the 1985 anti-apartheid uprising on the Cape Flats. His actions result in horrible consequences for his family, girlfriend, friends, and community, but ultimately contributes to the establishment of a free and democratic South Africa.
“Athlone’85 does not pull any punches. It tells it like it is: it is the truth that many people are hungry for. Everyone wants to live in a world where they feel safe and where they can optimally contribute to the wellbeing of society and the economy without fear. This is the story that will show viewers how the actions of a few can destroy this dream for an entire community but it will also show how these difficulties can be dealt with.”
Placid waters was a place like no other. It was beautiful. It was peaceful. Until…evil happened!
