Darling! The Pieter-Dirk Uys Story

Country: Australia, Language: English, 54 mins

  • Director: Julian Shaw
  • Writer: Julian Shaw
  • Producer: Jonathon Green

CGiii Comment

"The story of a man and the nation that divided him."

Controversial South African political satirist Pieter-Dirk Uys allows writer/director Julian Shaw into his previously off-limits inner world. The result is a startling document of Pieter's work educating school children about their country's greatest threat, HIV/AIDS, and an unforgettable portrait of the power of individual will.


There was a trailer...but, it has since disappeared.
