Death of a Whistleblower

A journalist, Luyanda, steps in front of the train as she investigates misdeeds by corrupt politicians, corporations, and military officers. Friends are hauled away or killed, and she is threatened with harm, but Luyanda is stubborn, fit, resourceful, and motivated to reveal the truth. She does not intend to help bury the past and allow the same crimes to be committed again.

Death of a Whistleblower is a captivating and authentic political thriller that encapsulates a real crisis in the world. All the characters of the film, evil and good, exist elsewhere in the world and especially in Africa with the Wagner group moving in and a fledgling democracy only 30 years old. "We are still trying to figure out who we are," said the film's director who appeared with the major actors at the world premiere screening in Toronto. The film is a little confusing and disjointed but it reveals a truth that every country in the world is struggling to deal with. Corporations and the elite are teaming together to enrich themselves at the expense of average citizens. "We need to rely on each other," said Gabriel "to move forward."
