BOPHA

Bopha’s theme examines the dilemma faced by black policemen in an apartheid policy
dispensation, and tells the story of a black policeman who enforced apartheid laws against black people; his brother who reluctantly enlists as a policeman in an endeavour to escape imprisonment; his son who takes refuge in school political activism in an endeavour to protect himself and his family from being targeted by angry black people; and an Afrikaner station commander torn between his sympathy for the plight of his black colleagues, and his loyalty to the police force.
