Dyer's killing

Was the director right about showing the bloodshed?

After the passing of time, I realized it was what kept the movie in my memory, when now some other scenes strike me as more important, and some are missing.

For example the cause for the separation with muslims is not much documented.
It just says that they are afraid of payback. Who , what, when that fear arised would have been interesting to know. Especially as one of the protagonists in South Africa is a Muslim, and quite a reasonable gentleman.

There is a political claim against showing violence, for it is using a humain compulsion, and is set against the will of the audience.

So, shows of violence, especially in a biopic about one of the greatest advocators of peace ?
