Both a history and a critique of South Africa's film industry, this book recounts the long experience of filmmaker and producer Richard Green.
Green's story—especially his work in forging the film initiative New Directions Africa—is emblematic of the struggles, negotiations, and competing ideologies that faced South Africa as it emerged from apartheid.
He continues to be an essential part of what is now a burgeoning industry that not only supports the creative work of Africans, but is also seen as having an important role in the nation-building process.

Probably the greatest British novelist of his generation, Graham
Greene's own story was as strange and compelling as those he told
of Pinkie the Mobster, Harry Lime, or the Whisky Priest. A restless
traveller, he was a witness to many of the key events of modern
history - including the origins of the Vietnam War, the Mau Mau
Rebellion, the betrayal of the double-agent Kim Philby, the rise of
Fidel Castro, and the guerrilla wars of Central America.
Traumatized as a boy and thought a Judas among his schoolmates,
Greene tried Russian Roulette and attempted suicide. He suffered
from bipolar illness, which caused havoc in his private life as his
marriage failed, and one great love after another suffered
shipwreck, until in his later years he found constancy in a
decidedly unconventional relationship. Often called a Catholic
novelist, his works came to explore the no man's land between
belief and unbelief. A journalist, an MI6 officer, and an unfailing
advocate for human rights, he sought out the inner narratives of
war and politics in dozens of troubled places, and yet he
distrusted nations and armies, believing that true loyalty was a
matter between individuals. A work of wit, insight, and compassion,
this new biography of Graham Greene, the first undertaken in a
generation, responds to the many thousands of pages of lost letters
that have recently come to light and to new memoirs by those who
knew him best. It deals sensitively with questions of private life,
sex, and mental illness; it gives a thorough accounting for the
politics of the places he wrote about; it investigates his
involvement with MI6 and the Cambridge five; above all, it follows
the growth of a writer whose works changed the lives of millions.
