Amine Mestari’s documentary —Johnny Clegg, the White Zulu — tells the story of the exceptional adventure of a committed musician, crazy for dance, who has made the world love his vision of a South African culture that allows everyone, black and white, to express themselves and make it possible to get along. Apartheid wanted to separate blacks from whites, Johnny Clegg brought them together by mixing English and Zulu, African rhythms and rock. In the early 1970s, he invented a unique style, that is unlike any other, and made it a political art. His story and that of his music are in line with the history of South Africa and its long journey to freedom.

Johnny Clegg, the White Zulu
