Sew the Winter to my Skin
2018 · Movie · 132 min. · South Africa
For decades, John Kepe, the “Samson of the Boschberg Mountains”, stole livestock and other goods from white colonist farmers and shared his spoils with the impoverished Indigenous population. His acts — and that he evaded capture for more than 12 years — earned him the title of folk hero to some, and notorious bandit to others.
