The Winners

"Alter egos and mirror images are eminent in this tale of woe and success starring the irrepressible Al Debbo in his prime. Klaas Haasbroek is a successful toy tester but is unable to convince his bosses that it is his uncanny predictive abilities that are responsible for the success of their products. His bosses, believing that it is his colleague Herman Engelbrecht who is doing all the good work, fire Klaas. It is now that Klaas´s mirror image begins motivating him." (Vetseun.co.za)

fantasy tale about a young Zulu who leaves his village to go to the city, falls in love with the new music he hears there, and returns home to form a Zulu jazz band. The South African production and distribution company African Films followed up the success of Zonk! with Song of Africa. This is a fantasy tale about a young Zulu who leaves his village to go to the city, falls in love with the new music he hears there, and returns home to form a Zulu jazz band – which then goes to the city to compete with other bands, and comes out on top. As in the earlier films, the impact of American jazz and popular music is enormous. Like African Jim and Zonk!, Song of Africa draws on the best talent from the townships. Director Emil Nofal and director of photography Dave Millin ensure high production values, making it an above-average B-movie.
