About A Sizwe Bansi Workshop
The play, Sizwe Bansi is Dead, follows the main character, Sizwe, as he writes to his wife after an unsuccessful search for a new job and better life for his family. This film places the viewer in the discussions between the writers of the play: Athol Fugard, John Kani and Winston Ntshona as they attempt to explain and re-write the play.
Directed by Peter Davis, A Sizwe Bansi Workshop leans on a strong ensemble — John Kani, Winston Ntshona, Athol Fugard — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 1981.
