A documentary which crushes all preconceived ideas about the Anglo-Boer War. The film looks from every possible angle at the tragic impact of the war on the lives of ordinary people. It focuses on Britain’s merciless Scorched Earth policy and the concentration camps for Afrikaner women, children and black people, as well as the way it shaped the collective South African psyche and politics of the twentieth century.
Scholars from various backgrounds and with varied opinions have the opportunity to put their side of the story, and the different views are juxtaposed, resulting in fiery debate. Conversations are interspersed with numerous letters, sworn statements, official documents, snippets of film material hardly seen before, as well as lots of photographs.
