Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Tsotsi is set on the road to redemption when he hijacks a car one night, only to later find a baby on the back seat. He makes the decision to care for the baby himself, causing his gangster exterior to slowly fade away as he learns about empathy and compassion.
