Shepherds and Butchers

In the gripping drama "Shepherds and Butchers", a British lawyer takes on a seemingly impossible case of a traumatized prison guard in post-apartheid South Africa, who is accused of murdering seven unarmed black sportsmen. As the defense attorney delves into the guard's volatile work environment and psychological trauma, he must confront his own opposition to the death penalty. Based on the debut novel by Chris Marnewick, this powerful film sheds light on a dark period in South African history.
