This is National Wake traces the wild rise and tragic fall of a multiracial South African punk band, dubbed "the band that defied apartheid," whose members risked everything to taste freedom. This debut feature, steeped in previously unseen footage of a 1970s anti-racist counterculture that few know existed, reveals a band whose music and memories comprise a profound meditation on how history is lived through art and in our minds.
