Songs of Struggle in the film Sarafina!.

      Аннотация: Sarafina! (1992) started in the 1980s as an inspirational resistance theatre production called Sarafina, The Music of Liberation. After the stage production’s big success on Broadway in the USA, film director Darrell James Roodt adapted Sarafina! as a musical film which was released in cinemas in 1992. Sarafina!, identified as a combination of township theatre and theatre of resistance, also employs songs of struggle. Sarafina! depicts the context in which the socio-political resistance of the youth during the 1980s is articulated, as well as the internal battle of a young black girl who is searching for her place in the struggle.
