In 1950’s South Africa, young Sandra Laing (Ella Ramangwane) is a black child, classified as white because she was born to white Afrikaner parents (Sam Neill and Alice Krige). Unaware of their mixed race ancestry and in denial of their daughter’s obvious traits, they are outraged when their beloved daughter is expelled from the all-white school her brother attends, and Sandra is reclassified as mixed-race. Their appeal to the Supreme Court is successful and she is again officially white, to her father’s extreme satisfaction. But, by now Sandra (here played by Sophie Okoneda, Hotel Rwanda) knows that she will never be accepted by the white community. When she falls in love with a nice, black vegetable seller, her truly racist father disowns her and she must now live as a black woman in oppressive Apartheid South Africa. Based on a true story, this fascinating and affecting drama of betrayal and triumph is told with grace and simplicity by director Anthony Fabian.
