A Common Purpose follows Andrea as she returns to South Africa to meet her clients from the landmark Upington 25 trial. In 1985, when apartheid was at its most violent, a black policeman was burnt to death and 25 people were convicted of his murder; 14 were sentenced to hang. A Common Purpose portrays the legal complexity of a notorious trial that marks South Africa's transition from apartheid to democracy. The story - as told by Andrea, journalist John Carlin and the accused - reveals one of legal history's biggest death penalty cases and a battle for justice in a country where injustice was entrenched in law.
The screening will be a fundraising event for the ‘Common Purpose Trust’, established by Prof. Durbach and Mitzi Goldman (producer and director) to support the educational and health care needs of the families of the Upington 25.
Donations are encouraged and will be taken at the door.
Donations are not tax-deductible and receipts will not be issued.
