Français La jeunesse et l'adolescence de P. K., Sud-Africain d'origine anglaise, au début des années trente. Élevé dans une petite ferme au cœur du veld, un même amour le liera au continent africain et aux Zoulous, auprès desquels il découvrira ses premières joies. Entré au lycée de Johannesburg, il découvre en même temps l'amour et le drame de l'apartheid. Fidèle à ses idéaux, il refuse le brillant avenir qui s'offre à lui et rejoint le camp des opprimés…
Italiano Sud Africa, anni '30. P.K. è un figlio di inglesi che, rimasto orfano, è allevato dalla tata zulu finché a non viene mandato in un collegio afrikaner.

Nach dem Tod seiner Eltern nimmt ihn der deutsche Professor von Vollensteen unter seine Fittiche. Zu Beginn des Zweiten Weltkrieges weigert sich dieser, sich als Ausländer zu melden, und wird deshalb ins Gefängnis gesteckt. P. K. besucht seinen Ziehvater dort und lernt so den schwarzen Gefangenen Geel Piet kennen, der ihm das Boxen beibringt. Als der Krieg vorbei ist, geht P. K. wieder zur Schule und hält dort am Boxsport fest. Bei einem seiner Kämpfe trifft er Maria in die er sich verliebt. Ihr Vater ist als Führer der Nationalistischen Partei Südafrikas von dieser Verbindung allerdings wenig begeistert. Dennoch kann P. K. Maria dazu überreden, mit ihm und seinem Freund Guideon die Afrikaner der Townships in Englisch zu unterrichten. Bei einem der heimlichen Treffen kommt es jedoch zu einer Katastrophe...

ελληνικά Νότια Αφρική, δεκαετία του 1930-40. Ο ΠΚ, ένας νεαρός ορφανός Άγγλος που ζει μόνος σε ξένη χώρα, αντιμετωπίζει ύβρεις κι απειλές από τους συμμαθητές του για τις πολιτικές του πεποιθήσεις. Απελπισμένος, στρέφεται στον μόνο φίλο που μπορεί να τον βοηθήσει, έναν έμπειρο, πρώην πολιτικό κατάδικο που τον διδάσκει μποξ και όχι μόνο. Τα σοφά λόγια «να μάχεσαι πρώτα με το μυαλό και την καρδιά» γίνονται πυξίδα στη ζωή του, στην πορεία του προς την ωριμότητα. Κι ανακαλύπτει ότι σε ένα άδικο κοινωνικό σύστημα, ένας άντρας μόνος του μπορεί να αποκτήσει τη δύναμη που χρειάζεται για να παλέψει να αλλάξει τα πράγματα.

Пийкей има тежко детство – като малък той е единственото европейско дете в африканско училище. Скоро след това Пийкей остава сирак. За него започва да се грижи немски професор, който развива таланта му да свири на пиано. След началото на Втората световна война пък Пийкей се оказва в затвора, защото неволно е нарушил закон за регистрация като чужденец. В затвора Пийкей се запознава с Джил Пит, който го научава да се боксира. Не само това, но неговият съкилийник му разказва за една легенда, която оказва невероятно силно влияние върху Пийкей! От този момент нататък той решава да използва всичките си таланти, за да промени света към по-добро!

Rocky Balboa is a struggling Philadelphia boxer who is scorned by his gym's owner, patronized by a loan shark and rebuffed by a shy 'plain-Jane', whose butcher brother keeps engineering a romantic match. Rocky would have remained in this rut had not heavyweight champion Apollo Creed come up with the Bicentennial gimmick to give a chance for a 'nobody' to become a 'somebody'. The "Italian Stallion" trains earnestly and goes the distance...against all odds!
In this fact-based film, a New Jersey superintendent, Dr. Frank Napier (Robert Guillaume), watches helplessly as East Side High becomes the lowest-ranked school in the state. With nowhere else to turn, Dr. Napier enlists maverick ex-teacher Joe Clark (Morgan Freeman) to take over as principal of the declining school. Unfortunately for Clark, before he can focus on improving the student body's state exam scores, he has to somehow rid the school of its gang and narcotics problems.
Professional bull-riding. The roughest, most dangerous, most grueling competitive sport. Life or death ... victory or defeat ... decided atop a 2,000 pound bull in 8 Seconds. This riveting drama based on the life of Rodeo World Champion Lane Frost (Luke Perry -- TV's "John From Cincinnati," TV's "Beverly Hills, 90210") tells the story of his dreams, ambition, perseverance, and sacrifice that lead to an Oklahoma boy's meteoric rise to fame as a champion bull-rider before his rough and tumble life is tragically cut short. To stay atop a bucking bull, holding on with just one hand, takes equal parts skill, courage, luck and determination from those willing to risk all for the ultimate thrill in 8 Seconds. Co-starring Stephen Baldwin ("The Usual Suspects," "The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas") and Emmy Award-nominee Cynthia Geary (TV's "Northern Exposure," "Smoke Signals").
The price of honor. The power of friendship. The Karate Kid, Part II. Ralph Macchio and Noriyuki "Pat" Morita re-create the roles that brought them international acclaim in The Karate Kid. Karate student, Daniel Larusso (Macchio), accompanies his wise and whimsical teacher, Mr. Miyagi (Morita), to his ancestral home in Okinawa. For the boy, it's a journey to an exotic new world offering new clues to his mentor's secret past. For Miyagi, it's an opportunity to see his father one last time and to rekindle a romance with his childhood sweetheart (Nobu McCarthy). But Miyagi's return also re-ignites a bitter feud with long-time enemy, Sato (Danny Kamekona) - a feud that involves young Daniel in a brilliant collision of cultures and combat. Now, far away from the tournaments, the cheering crowds and the safety of home, Daniel will face his greatest challenge ever when teacher becomes student and the price of honor is life itself.
A fatherless teenager faces his moment of truth in The Karate Kid. Daniel (Ralph Macchio) arrives in Los Angeles from the east coast and faces the difficult task of making new friends. However, he becomes the object of bullying by the Cobras, a menacing gang of karate students, when he strikes up a relationship with Ali (Elisabeth Shue), the Cobra leader's ex-girlfriend. Eager to fight back and impress his new girlfriend but afraid to confront the dangerous gang, Daniel asks his handyman Miyagi (Noriyuki 'Pat' Morita), whom he learns is a master of the martial arts, to teach him karate. Miyagi teaches Daniel that karate is a mastery over the self, mind, and body and that fighting is always the last answer to a problem. Under Miyagi's guidance, Daniel develops not only physical skills but also the faith and self-confidence to compete despite tremendous odds as he encounters the fight of his life in the exciting finale to this entertaining film.
