The Law "On the redistribution of agricultural land" was one of the first initiatives of the Zimbabwean dictator Robert Mugabe. During its implementation, thousands of white farmers were dispossessed. They surrendered without a fight out of fear. And only the old farmer Mike Campbell, whose family owned fruit plantations in Zimbabwe for several generations, was not afraid. He and his son-in-law Ben declared war on Mugabe's reform. Neither threats nor severe beatings stopped them. The film follows the Campbell family in their struggle to own what has been theirs for centuries, until the victory that was the decision of the South African Tribunal for Racial Discrimination and Human Rights.
