**NOTICE**
This film is one of hundreds (of films) that were produced in South Africa in the period 1980 – 1989, under what was known as the B-Scheme Subsidy*. The subsidy was introduced by the apartheid government to encourage producers to make films for the majority black audiences, with the idea of creating entertainment for the black population in the homelands (the areas designated for people of colour by the Group Areas Act of 1950**), and thereby keeping their minds off of political unrest.
It is important to note that despite the circumstances surrounding the original production and release of this film, this film forms an important part of South Africa’s cultural film (and political) heritage and should be viewed in this context.
