"Banned" uncovers the compelling story of "Joe Bullet," a groundbreaking 1971 South African action thriller. As the first film to feature an all-black African cast, it faced immediate censorship upon its 1973 release. This documentary delves into the film's tumultuous history, featuring interviews with surviving cast members Abigail Kubeka and Sol Rachilo, producer Tony Van Der Merwe, and banned filmmaker Kevin Harris.
