-The play tells the story of [[Bram Fischer]], the lawyer and [[Afrikaner]] member of the communist party who campaigned against [[Apartheid]] and saved [[Nelson Mandela]] from a death sentence, but who himself would die in prison.  Based on research and conversations with people who had known Fischer well, the piece is set in a tiny prison cell and looks back at his [[Afrikaner]] roots, his political views, his personal life - and how this would ultimately determine his fate.

Gebaseer op navorsing en gesprekke met mense wat Bram goed geken het, word daar gekyk hoe sy Afrikanerwortels, sy politieke uitkyk, sy lewe, en uiteindelik hoe sy lot bepaal is.
