Summary Note |
He was an illegitimate prince who reclaimed his birthright with brilliance and brutality. He created a vast new nation from warring tribes and forged an army that defied the most powerful empire on earth. He was Shaka Zulu. This is the story of the legendary African King, brought to life in an epic, 10-part production, which is one of the most compelling and controversial films in history. From his boyhood exile to the bloody struggles that solidified his rule and his proud defiance of British colonists, Shaka Zulu is the remarkable tale of a man who stood at the heart of a battle between two worlds. |
