Set in the stunning New Zealand bush, a psychotic and rather uncaring social worker leaves an unwanted delinquent on a remote farm, in the care of the loving Aunt Bella, the cantankerous Uncle Hec, and Tupac the dog.

Biography, Drama, Romance

In the 1940s, Prince Khama of Botswana shocked the world when he married a London typist. It was love at first sight, they were soulmates, yet their proposed marriage was challenged not only by their families but by the British and South African governments as well.

The South Africa government had recently introduced the policy of apartheid and found the notion of a biracial couple ruling a neighboring country intolerable. South Africa threatened the British: either thwart the couple or be denied access to South African uranium and gold and face the risk of South Africa invading Botswana.
