Goofs
In his interview, filmmaker Antony Thomas talks about his starring role in "Wild Season" (1967), stating that this film "opened his eyes up to the horrors of Apartheid". This film has absolutely nothing to do with apartheid and is actually a depiction of the generation gap clash between a stern forbidding father and his son.
