Tsotsi

In this world... Redemption comes just once.

A gritty yet redemptive portrait of a hardened gang member transformed by unexpected responsibility and human connection in the slums of Johannesburg.

A young South African boy from the Johannesburg ghetto named Tsotsi, meaning Gangster, leaves home as a child to get away from his helpless parents. Now a teenage thug, Tsotsi finds a baby in the back seat of a car he's just stolen. He decides that it is his responsibility to care for the infant and in the process learns that maybe the criminal life isn’t the best way.
