Product Description
This is a documentary that you will not forget. It was filmed in Africa during the 1960s, when the English first started to leave the continent, leaving it almost entirely in the hands of Africans. What followed was sheer lawlessness, as poachers, mercenaries, and African tribes all carved out their little niche' in African society. Much of the wild-life, formerly protected in large areas, became quickly hunted by Africans, chasing the animals with spears by the thousands. Also, with no bans on hunting being enforced after the English left, wealthy white poachers would come there, be dropped off in a helicopter, shoot an elephant, and fly away. Many innocent whites suffered, and a band of mercenaries are shown freeing some nuns. A scene is given where a building is labeled, "Alamo," with paint, illustrating the hopelessness with which many whites were left. Due to this DVD being made from footage filmed in the 1960s, the color and clarity is probably not as bright as original. However, the message this video conveys is timeless, and it will be something that will permanently be etched in your memory.DVD:
