Synopsis: Life
in a South African Township is seen through the eyes of seven pupils as they
come together under the parental eye of Mr Mtshali, headmaster of Velabahleke
High School. Velabahleke (Come with a Smile) may be the only school in the
country that starts at 06h30am and where students are racing to get there on
time! Mr Mtshali has created an oasis of excellence for hundreds of learners,
where students, staff and the community are doggedly determined that they not”
be slaves to their backgrounds". The aspirations and everyday lives of the
pupils, both in and out of school, interweave to form a story of a generation
striving to transcend their backgrounds and achieve what could now be theirs in
the new South Africa. Buy online at the store Watch the trailer AmaZulu: The Children Of Heaven musical scene
