Under South Africa's brutal apartheid regime, black activist Steve
Biko has been working tirelessly for years to undermine the system
when he meets white journalist Donald Woods. Initially suspicious
of Biko and his motives, Woods finds himself united with Biko in
common cause after Biko reveals to him the true extent of police
atrocities in the black townships. And when tragedy strikes, the
powerful bond that has been forged between them leads Woods to make
a courageous stand on his friend's behalf, risking everything to
expose the horrors of this murderous regime.
