Stander -- Film Description:
"André Stander was a smooth talker, jailbreaker, thrill addict and master of disguise. He was also a high-ranking officer in South Africa's Apartheid-era police force who became an outlaw hero when he launched a second career as a bank robber. In her third feature, director Bronwen Hughes unfurls a stunning adaptation of Stander's shocking true story."
