Comments about history «Krotoa» (62)
Krotoa, a feisty, bright, young 11 year old girl is removed from her close-knit Khoi tribe to serve Jan van Riebeeck, her uncle's trading partner. She is brought into the first Fort established by the Dutch East India Company in 1652. There she grows into a visionary young woman who assimilates the Dutch language and culture so well that she rises to become an influential interpreter for van Riebeeck who became the first Governor of the Cape Colony. As such Krotoa ends up being rejected by her own Khoi people and destroyed by the Dutch when she tries to find the middle way between the two cultures.
Hoo-wee! Where to start! Well written and directed, good actors choice.
The best movie I've had the pleasure of watching in years. Brendon Daniels was excellent in this movie.
I was pleasantly surprised, this actually turned out to be a great movie, action and humor.
I can't speak for others, but I found this wildly relatable. It's is my favorite movie now.
I'm surprised I've not watched it sooner but hugely enjoyed every moment of this film. This film is up there in my top 10 films!
So, what makes this film different? It's smart, focused, and suspenseful.
Great movie, subtly addresses so many issues.
