    I'm 23 and I remember watching and loving this movie when I was a little kid. It's nice seeing a much younger generation enjoy this film as well.

    This ending is powerful for two reasons:
    1. Mahree has finally seen the environment she's been brought up in from another perspective.
    2. In real life, "Piper" speculates that "Mahree" went back to join anti-Apartheid efforts but never heard from her again, meaning that it was quite likely she was killed or jailed.

      @Beth black given South Africa's situation in the 1970s and 1980s, that's probably true. Has the Truth and Reconciliation Committee reached that conclusion though?

      Mahree, who was actually named Carrie, helped form the first anti-apartheid student underground movement, but speculation arose she was arrested for organizing. According to Congressman Dellums, she wrote letters to him asking for assistance, but communications suddenly ceased. After attempts to reach her though official channels failed after Mandela was released, the family assumed she was killed as a result of her activism.

    As a kid I didn’t understand or know the context of this but I understood it as it was presented to me and I’m all the more happy Disney wasn’t afraid to show this to kids. You couldn’t make a movie for kids about apartheid these days.

    This movie came out the year I was born, in 2000. But I didn't actually see it until I was probably about 14 years old, for the first time! Now I'm 17 years old, wishing I could go back to the 00's. The 00's were such a great decade! The ending makes me cry for some reason, idky. But this is also nostalgic.

    I never saw this movie though I have heard of the "After School" specials. I found out about this one because of a different After School Special I was reading about on the internet/ . This is based on a true story? It seems overly mellow-dramatic. Very political too. Of course it is nicely done for a sentimental movie. Yet if it is trying to present a political point, it is one sided.
