[edit] Synopsis

Set in the last years of the civil war in Rhodesia it followed a Rhodesian agent (Harris) in his effort to secure an illegal arms deal and a Zimbawean insurgent (Rowntree) trying to prevent him. A number of other leading British actors appeared including Denholm Elliot and Joan Collins. The action was set entirely in Britain and Rhodesia.

It was released at almost the same time that the Rhodesian Civil War, on which the film was based, came to a close.

The film was not a commercial or critical success.
