Strike a Rock

About

Strike a Rock | Aliki Saragas | South Africa | 2017 | 87 min

After a massacre shakes the foundations of their poverty stricken mining community, Marikana, two grandmothers rise up out of their homes and lead their community in a fight against seemingly insurmountable odds for justice and dignity. From fighting on-the-ground to the corridors of power, how will they make their voices heard?

Thanks to UCT Sunshine Cinema Film Screening Impact Facilitator short course and Elafos Productions for the film.
