This epic film was one of the first South African dramatic film productions. It tells the story of the Boers’ Great Trek at the end of the 1830s, concluding with a hegemonic reconstruction of the 1838 Battle of Blood River, where a few hundred armed Afrikaners defeated several thousand Zulus.
Adventurer Allan Quatermain leads an expedition into uncharted African territory in an attempt to locate an explorer who went missing during his search for King Solomon's gold mines.
