“A World Apart” is both political and personal – a view of a revolutionary as the middle-class mother of a normal 13-year-old girl. The girl’s name is Molly (Jodhi May), and the film opens with episodes from her typical childhood in an affluent white South African community.
The book title, A World Apart is an allusion to the Fyodor Dostoyevsky's novel, Notes from the House of the Dead. An epigraph to Grudziński's book quotes Dostoyevsky: "Here there is a world apart, unlike everything else, with laws of its own, its own manners and customs, and here in the house of the living dead — life as nowhere else and a people apart".
