Explore ‘The Cry of Reason’—a documentary by Bob Bilheimer and Kevin Harris. This Oscar-nominated film reveals Beyers Naude’s transformation from an Afrikaner predikant to an advocate for the oppressed in Apartheid South Africa, offering a poignant message on truth and justice.

“The Cry of Reason” documents the pilgrimage of Beyers Naude – an establishment Afrikaner “predikant” in the darkest days of Apartheid South Africa – who, upon examining his conscience and realising that his ministry must surely be to the poor and oppressed, had to turn his back on the “laager” and suffer ostracism from his own people.
