1971: Laurens van der Post explores
A Region of Shadow
Himself of Afrikaans origin, and as a young man one of the first to oppose racialism in South Africa, the distinguished writer LAURENS VAN DER POST attempts to discover the causes at the heart of racial prejudice.
In this film he goes on a journey of rediscovery to South Africa and elsewhere. But his journey is also an inward one, to the dark recesses of the human mind.

Forard, Forard
The crack of whips and the shrill sound of horns fracture many a frosty morning in hunting country. In the privileged past kings and princes sported here with hard-riding parsons and red-cheeked farmers and they were supported by half of London society. Out of the ground sprouted huge country houses and enormous appetites.
