In the apartheid-era of South Africa, schooIteacher Ben du Toit (Donald Sutherland) lives with his wife and two chiIdren, wilfully naive to the racism and injustice in his country. That is untiI the son of his gardener is beaten and kilIed by white poIice officers in the aftermath of a protest for better education for BIack children. This devastating event forces du Toit's to open his eyes and emboIdens him to finally stand up and take action, seeking the heIp of human rights Iawyer lan McKenzie (Marlon Brando), an isoIating endeavour that wiIl change the Iives of du Toit and his family forever.
