In South Africa a young black couple (Angela Basset, Danny Glover) with a new baby are driven out of their shanty by white oppressors, and are forced to abandon their home and their memories of a happy life and wander around the Cape Flats looking for shelter. As their feelings of grief, shame, and misery grow, their relationship begins to fall apart. Directed by John Berry, BOESMAN & LENA is based on a play by South African author Athol Fugard.
