A DRY WHITE SEASON

Rated R; 107 minutes; 1989
A DRY WHITE SEASON is the stirring account of the devastation of two families—one black, one white—set against the background of South Africa in 1976. This story remains a compelling look at the injustices of Apartheid and its effects on all people living in South Africa.
