Final Solution / From One Blood - Set Of Two-DVD [2 items]

Set includes two titles:

Final Solution
-- The indoctrination of Gerrit Wolfaardt is complete: his family traditions, history, culture- even his church- have taught him that black South Africans are a cancer in the land. Under the eye of prominent members of the government and military, Gerrit develops a diabolical plan to rid South Africa of its "black danger." Before his plans can be carried out, he meets two people who will put him on a collision course with his future: Celeste, an open minded university student, and Peter, a pastor who challenges Gerrit's prejudice. His "final solution" meets its greatest obstacle when Gerrit himself realizes he is wrong. The Persecutor becomes the Peacemaker and begins to seek reconciliation between whites and blacks. However, in the turbulent last days of apartheid, there are those who doubt his transformation. One such person is Moses Moremi, whom Gerrit had once violently attacked. In the film's dramatic conclusion, it is Moses who must choose between peace and bloodshed. Based on a true story.

Not Rated: Parental Guidance Suggested / Scenes of violence not suitable for younger audiences.

From One Blood
-- Afrikaner Gerrit Wolfaardt was born into prejudice. everything he had been taught since childhood-from his family, his church and his culture-told him that apartheid, or separateness, was right and natural. He became a self-proclaimed disciple of Hitler, and hatched a diabolical plan to rid South Africa of the "Black Danger".

His ideology was challenged by Celeste, who later became his wife, and by the book Cry the Beloved Country. His search for truth led him to question beliefs that had been passed down from the past. In this documentary, Gerrit shares the amazing journey that resulted in his radical transformation. Also included are scenes from Final Solution, a feature film based on his life. Today, Gerrit takes the message of racial reconciliation to people in the United States and South Africa. He and Celeste live in Colorado; they have three children.
