Based on harrowing true events, this screenplay was written using case files discovered by Jack Lewis in South African archives. South Africa, 1725. Claas Blank, a young Khoi herder, is found guilty of attempting to re-acquire cattle that had been commandeered by white settlers. He is convicted and sent to work in the labour camp of Robben Island. Also at the nursery is Rijkhaart Jacobsz, a Dutch sailor who has been sent to the island for homosexual misconduct. The two prisoners are inexorably drawn to one another - and before long they become lovers. For ten years, the prison authorities turn a blind eye to Blank and Jacobsz's 'friendship' - but one day Niven, who is himself trying to elude a homosexual scandal, sets foot on Robben Island once more, and catastrophe unfolds.
