This historical documentary examines official tributes alongside survivors’ accounts and allegations. Allegations are distinguished from court findings; Shiri was never charged over Gukurahundi.

The whole world knew about Gukurahunde. The British for a certain, and they chose to do nothing, in fact, they even rewarded Shiri by furthering his training. The moment he touches white farmers, they all jump in to punish him. It's amazing how different we are treated. This isn't an isolated case. 10 years later, the world watched and did nothing when Tutsis were being eradicated in Rwanda.
