Jabula – A Band in Exile (1981)
Director: Jan Bernard Bussemaker
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
No great shakes as a movie, but a sympathetic profile of this black South African group, exiled to the 100 Club in London and discussing the problem of maintaining indigenous roots in music designed to help fight apartheid through popular appeal. The mainstay is a rousing performance of their number 'Wake Up!', intercut with stills of Sharpeville.Author: TM
