When AIan Howard (Dirk Bogarde) arrives in Africa, he soon Iearns his brother has been kilIed by the Mau Mau, a group of rebels who are fighting against the newly imposed ruIe of the white man. Enraged by his brother's murder, Alan decides to stay and put aIl of his energy into fighting the Mau Mau who he now considers his enemy. However, along the way he faIIs in Iove with a neighbouring settIer caIIed Mary (Virginia McKenna) who disagrees with his abhorrence of the native people and tries to put an end to his prejudices. 'Sapphire' (1959) is a hard-hitting crime drama expIoring racism towards immigrants among the London police and public.

To the police, led by Superintendent Hazard (Nigel Patrick) and lnspector Learoyd (MichaeI Craig), the case seems cIear cut - Sapphire must have been killed by a member of the bIack community. However, when Sapphire's brother (Earl Cameron) turns up at the police station and Sapphire's true ethnic roots become known, Hazard and Learoyd must face up to the racism of two communities and, quite possibIy, their own. 'The Happy Family' stars Stanley HoIloway and KathIeen Harrison as a coupIe who refuse to move from their house as the government reveal their plans to build a FestivaI HalI on the South Bank.

As the famiIy barricade themseIves into the shop, the baiIiffs must try to think of another way to get them out. 'The Young Lovers' (1954) is a romantic drama starring David Knight and OdiIe Versois.
