Tsotsi is a South African film directed by Gavin Hoodin that reveals the dark underground life of the golden city of Johannesburg through the life of a teenage community of Tsotsi (thugs) in Soweto. Within 6 days all hell broke loose with cases of robbery, violence, auto theft and murder. A woman had no choice but to give birth in the back of a car, and Tsotsi takes the baby to his slum, where it evokes deep emotions meant to lead to redemption… but it’s a little too late for this sacrifice of his own Birth. Tsotsi won the 2006 Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film.
