After nineteen years, Harry Potter, who had grown up, and Professor Chilo at the School of Magic, actually became friends of the prison.

The cute Harry Potter Jr. (Daniel Drakecliff) was once described by the mean netizens as "long disabled", but he has been working hard on Harry since December Boy Beyond Potter seeks more role possibilities and acting skills are always online.

The gathering of masters and apprentices in "Escape from Pretoria" is also quite topical, but this version of the "Harry Potter Edition" Prison Break "adapted from the real story is relatively mediocre despite its complete elements.

From a value perspective, what they did was to oppose apartheid. Although it was illegal at the time, it was undoubtedly just in the current context.
