Made as a mini-series for British audiences by the South African director William Faure, this is the sweeping story of the Zulu nation's rise to power and especially of its warrior-king Shaka Zulu. Starring Henry Cele as Shaka, this critically acclaimed epic miniseries details the Zulu nation's struggle against European colonialism, his innovations in warfare, and the legendary warrior's ultimate downfall. Set against the spectacular panorama of the Zulu tribal homeland, Shaka Zulu features a first rate cast including Christopher Lee, Dudu Mkhize, Robert Powell and Edward Fox. DVD extras include vintage interviews with cast and crew, galleries of original production art, galleries of original production stills, essay on the history of the Zulu Wars, and more.  (SAF54, $79.95)
