Sinopse

Murder or justice? This question is still being fiercely debated a century after Lieutenant harry Morant and Lieutenant Peter Handcock were shot on a lonely veldt outside Pretoria at dawn on 27th February 1902, by a British military firing squad. They were found guilty by court martial of murdering Boer prisoners, but claimed they received orders from Lord Kitchener to 'take no prisoners' - charge both Kitchener and the British government denied. In every war there is a character like Morant - a buckjumper, bush balladeer and rebellious spirit who ends up on the wrong side of the 'great cause'.-- back cover.
