It's not always black and white. The real life story of a group of four young combat photographers - Greg Marinovich, João Silva, Kevin Carter and Ken Oosterbroek - bonded by friendship and their determination to tell the truth. They risked their lives and used their camera lenses to tell the world about the brutality and violence associated with the first free elections in post-Apartheid South Africa in the early 90’s. This intense political period brought out their best work (two won Pulitzers during the period) but exacted a heavy price.
The film explores the thrill, danger and moral questions associated with exposing the truth.
