- Synopsis
- Nelson Mandela is dead and in South Africa his dream of a rainbow nation is fading. More than two decades after the fall of apartheid, groups of white Afrikaners have cut themselves off from this unpredictable country, fearing that their language, culture, and eventually their entire people, may soon become extinct. Weaving between past and present, Into the Laager traces the war for control of South Africa and, in so doing, takes us back to the origin of these fears: the years of nationalism and social engineering behind this modern struggle for identity and relevancy.
