Synopsis

Stander (2003) is a crime drama with action you can watch online on iFILM. It traces the real life of Andre Stander, a police captain in apartheid-era South Africa, played by Thomas Jane.

Early on, Stander helps crush township protests and guns down an unarmed man in the street — and that single shot breaks something in him for good. To strike back at the system he served, he starts robbing banks by night while still investigating heists by day, sometimes turning up at a scene that's already his own work. Two accomplices soon join him, and the trio becomes the country's most brazen gang. Director Bronwen Hughes is less interested in the chases than in guilt and the hypocrisy of the regime; Dexter Fletcher and David O'Hara round out the cast. It'll click with anyone drawn to true-crime outlaws and the dying days of apartheid. Stream Stander (2003) online on iFILM.
