Synopsis

The story of a young South African news cameraman who is assigned to the desert of Namibia to cover the manhunt of a brutal and deadly renegade African. The killer, Nhadiep, has an almost mythical status to both the white farmers and the black laborers with his ability to evade capture in the racially segregated country. With the help of a veteran journalist, the video journalist attempts to piece together an in-depth news report only to find himself drawn between the two things he holds dearest - work and his country.
