An interesting story in a well driven story and high quality cut. However, it tries to be much more epic than what it actually is.

An unlikely and interesting story that is part historical, part investigation and ultimately satisfying. The historical backdrop of South Africa's dictatorship years and of the lack of communication it had with the outside world are key in understanding why this strange story could happen in the first place.
