| Synopsis
A quest for reconciliation becomes a journey to forgiveness. Sidney Bloch, an internationally recognized professor of psychiatry from Australia, returns to Cape Town, South Africa for his medical school reunion. Sid has suffered from a troubled conscience for forty years and wants to resolve his guilt for colluding with Apartheid � but what will it take to free him from his past? He�s accompanied on his quest for reconciliation by his son, Aaron, who is also his harshest critic. Narrated by Aaron, the film explores how easy it is for a good person to accept injustice and compromise one�s morals. Wrong Side of the Bus is one man�s journey to forgiveness. WINNER!
