The Wilby Conspiracy (1975)
Na 10 jaar in de gevangenis te hebben doorgebracht voor nationalistische activiteiten, wordt Shack Twala uiteindelijk vrijgelaten door het Zuid-Afrikaanse Hooggerechtshof, maar hij gaat bijna onmiddellijk op de vlucht na een aanvaring met de politie. Bijgestaan door zijn advocaat Rina Van Niekirk en de Britse ingenieur Jim Keogh, gaat hij naar Kaapstad waar hij hoopt een voorraad diamanten terug te krijgen, bedoeld om revolutionaire activiteiten te financieren, die hij vóór zijn opsluiting aan een tandarts had toevertrouwd. Onderweg worden ze gevolgd door majoor Horn van het Zuid-Afrikaanse Staatsveiligheidsbureau en het wordt duidelijk dat hij niet van plan is hen te arresteren totdat ze hun eindbestemming hebben bereikt
