The Trials of Winnie Mandela

Season 1 Episode 7: Chapter 7: WINIFRED NOMZAMO ZANYIWE MANDELA MADIKIZELA (2013 – 2018)

More than two decades after they were last seen alive in Winnie’s backyard, the remains of two young activists are exhumed from an unmarked grave in Soweto. Their bodies are finally returned to their parents. No legal process follows. Winnie denies any knowledge of their murders. Five years later, she dies. Forty thousand mourners gather at her funeral. A nation grieves – still divided. In the end, Swati and Zaziwe are left holding the question that has shadowed every chapter: whose violence is forgiven, whose suffering is erased – and who, if anyone, ever holds 100 percent of sainthood?
