Piangi mio amato paese (1951)
Partito dalle terre remote del Sudafrica, il reverendo zulu Stephen Kumalo si reca a Johannesburg alla ricerca dei suoi cari, il figlio Absolom, la sorella Gertrude e il fratello John, dei quali non ha notizie da quando hanno dovuto lasciare la campagna per la città in cerca di lavoro. Con l'aiuto del reverendo Msimangu farà la conoscenza di persone, sia bianche che nere, impegnate a creare una nuova società in cui non ci siano differenze razziali, ma scoprirà anche la dura realtà dell'apartheid e l'ingiustizia sociale portata dal potere coloniale.
