Silverton Siege

Directed by Mandla Dube and produced by Walter Ayres and Mandla Dube, the action-thriller follows the plot of true accounts that took place in South Africa in 1980. After a failed sabotage mission that turns into a bank hostage standoff, a trio of freedom fighters, Umkhonto weSizwe (MK), collide with the authorities. However, amid rising tension in the bank, the Trio realise that they have been set up and that one among them is an "Impimpi" - a police spy. The identity of the spy remains a raging question in a plot where the desire for freedom remains at the forefront. Written by Sabelo Mgidi, the film stars Thabo Rametsi, Noxolo Dlamini, Stefan Erasmus, and Arnold Vosloo and is based on a true story that spurred the global 'Free Mandela' movement.
