A compelling look at suffering and strength of South African political prisoners. The film documents the 1995 reunion and return of 1,250 former political prisoners to the notorious Robben Island Prison, a maximum security facility located on a small island seven kilometers off the coast near Cape Town. The return was led by Nelson Mandela, the former President of South Africa, who was imprisoned there for over 20 years. Directed by Danny Schecter and Barbara Kopple. Presented by ITVS
