Amandla! A revolution in four-part harmony tells the story of black South African freedom music and the central role it played against apartheid. The first film to specifically consider the music that sustained and galvanized black South Africans for more than 40 years, Amandla!'s focus is on the struggle's spiritual dimension, as articulated and embodied in song. Named for the Xhosa word for 'power', Amandla! lives up to its title, telling an uplifting story of human courage, resolve and triumph.
