Synopsis
PK, an English orphan terrorized for his family's political beliefs in Africa, turns to his only friend, a kindly world-wise prisoner, Geel Piet. Geel teaches him how to box with the motto “fight with your fists and lead with your heart”. As he grows to manhood, PK uses these words to take on the system and the injustices he sees around him - and finds that one person really can make a difference.

It is a good movie about racism in Africa in mid 20th century. The unusual friendship between a whit boy and a black servant is played in a believable way. Overall a good story that is though also on the edge of credibility. Watch it and make up you own mind.

Theses kinda films always hit me and I’m happy It’s not has bad and the world has seen sense in that we are all equal whatever race we are. This film was definitely a heart warming tale with a strong message all the way through and with a great performance from a young Stephen Dorff who stayed in the ring the whole way and along with some other big names with short roles including Morgan freeman that never fails to amaze me. Cheers John G Avildsen for another good film and specially loved your work on rocky & karate kid. 1935-2017
