Synopsis
A recreation of the events surrounding the shooting of five Australian journalists during Indonesia's invasion of East Timor in 1975. It is told through the eyes of a sixth Australian, Roger East, who is lured to East Timor to investigate the truth behind the death of the five men, who were supposedly "caught in cross-fire" during the invasion. East discovers to his own detriment that the quest to uncover the truth is highly dangerous.
