Matthew Goniwe, a popular teacher from the small town of Cradock, was a leading opponent of South Africa's separatist Apartheid policies. His contributions led to the first "liberated zone." Goniwe's brutal murder by security forces signaled the beginning of the end of the racist ruling regime and helped pave the way for the election of Nelson Mandela as South Africa's first democratic president in 1994. This film allows viewers to perceive the oppression of Apartheid and how it broke the lives of many.
