Plot.
The British Empire sees its interests in South Africa threatened by the Boers from Holland and engages them in battle. The Boer leader Ohm Krüger is unable to secure peace - open war breaks out. Britain uses the most brutal means to assert its claims to power over the Boers. Villages are plundered and destroyed indiscriminately, the natives are incited and women and children are interned. The small Boer people are forced to capitulate to the British superiority despite their valiant resistance.
