    Absolutely ruined my evening
    At the time Terra and Calvin came out with the american guy (Mr Washington) to burn the money leaving alto inside who was the informat to the police they had the chance to take them out while living no risk to the hostages.

    Like seriously how can the police (captain) believe the bank robbers they've been trying to catch for a long time that all of it was for a movement (Freedom). Freedom for Nelson Mandela

    Yes for real the hostages could believe it was a movement and could grow the stockholm syndrome but for the guy holding a gun at alto's head why would he start shooting randomly until the gun goes empty.

    Silverton Siege uses certain licenses to tell a story that deserves to be told"
    Silverton Siege is a South African film partially based on a true story that raises questions about freedom, slavery and injustice. Composed of a script that takes certain creative licenses when narrating the story, but that is far beyond being a film about the search for freedom.

    Silverton Siege chronicles the events that accidentally triggered the "Nelson Mandela Freedom Movement. An emotional film full of feelings of justice and liberation. With outstanding performances and a fairly acceptable editing, the film is permeated by constant tension and by the unbridled rhythm of a group of people who find themselves involved in a spiral where everything seems to be getting worse. An unmissable and indispensable story.
