Synopsis

Brenda Fassie is South Africa's most popular woman singer, though until recently her records have been known only in South African black community.She has been justly compared with Madonna, idolized both for her music and for her provocative, iconoclastic lifestyle."Not a Bad Girl" features Brenda Fassie both in concert performance and engaged in a hectic daily routine, from which she emerges as a complex, self-questioning individual with a rich sense of humour and a talent for self-parody.The film gives a powerful sense of the diversity and complexity of black South African culture and of the issues being debated as the new society takes shape.
