Frente a Frente com o Inimigo
18/01/2009
Enormes manifestações públicas desencadeiam uma onda de violência por toda a Africa do Sul. Uma verdadeira guerra civil esta prestes a romper, entre a minoria branca que governa e comanda o sistema de Apartheid e a maioria da população negra. A estabilidade do país não é a única ameaça, o interesse de inúmeras companhias estrangeiras está em jogo, especialmente a da Consolidated Gold. Comandada por um inglês, sua estratégia é simples: enviar em segredo o relações públicas da empresa Michael Young (Jonny Lee Miller) para espionar as conversas entre os rebeldes e os representantes das minorias brancas. Colocando sua integridade moral e física em risco, Young consegue envolver o líder do Congresso Nacional Africano, em uma trama de intrigas e mentiras forçando um renomado professor de filosofia, William Esterhuyse (William Hurt) a ajudar se infiltrando no circulo de amizades do líder do Congresso.
