{"product_id":"catch-a-fire","title":"Catch A Fire","description":"Set in early 1980s Apartheid-era South Africa  CATCH A FIRE is a gripping political thriller based on a remarkable true story. Derek Luke (ANTWONE FISHER) stars as Patrick Chamusso  a family man who works as a foreman at the Secunda oil refinery. Although he tries his best to stay out of politics  he is dragged in when Colonel Nic Vos (Tim Robbins) wrongly believes that Chamusso is a prime suspect in a terrorist bombing that occurred at the plant. Despite being brutally beaten and tortured  Chamusso continues to declare his innocence  but the situation changes drastically when the Police Security Branch brings in his wife  Precious (Bonnie Henna). Faced with some hard choices  Chamusso starts listening to radio broadcasts by the illegal African National Congress  an organization of freedom fighters seeking to end apartheid  and decides its finally time to fight back. Vos and Chamusso  both dedicated to their families as well as to their very different causes  play a relentless game of cat and mouse  symbols of the intense battle between blacks and whites that blew up in horrific violence right before apartheid ended. Robbins and Luke are both excellent in complex and difficult roles  and theres a breakout performance from South African actress Henna. Director Phillip Noyce (RABBIT-PROOF FENCE  THE QUIET AMERICAN) and screenwriter Shawn Slovo (whose father  Joe Slovo  was a white leader of the resistance movement) researched the story thoroughly  resulting in a powerful  realistic drama. CATCH A FIRE was filmed on location in South Africa  Mozambique  and Swaziland  and features traditional  folk  and protest songs by the Bongani Singing Group  Sidikadika Ndlovu  Ras Michael and the Sons of Negus  and Bob Marley  among others.\r\n","brand":"Not Assigned","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54305377419649,"sku":"8247684","price":5.19,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0702\/9050\/5986\/files\/1253082.jpg?v=1747317127","url":"https:\/\/hit.co.uk\/products\/catch-a-fire","provider":"Hit","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
