Synopsis

After participating in the brutal killing of rioting blacks while in the line of duty, South African homicide/robbery captain, Andre Stander (Tom Jane) decided to defy the very system he was a part of and set off on an audacious crime spree: robbing banks during his lunch hour then returning to the scene of the crime to lead the investigation. Finally caught by the same police force he worked with, Stander was jailed and, subsequently, befriended Allan Heyl (David Patrick O'Hara) and Lee McCall (Dexter Fletcher). Following a daring jailbreak, the 'Stander Gang' committed a large number of bank heists which grew increasingly bolder over time. In the eyes of the public, their blatant disregard for authority made them South Africa's most popular anti-heroes. To the police, however, Stander and his gang were the most wanted men in the country.

Synopsis

Brian Jones was the consummate artist, pop star, fashion icon and womaniser. During the seven short years of his glittering rise to stardom and fateful plummet between 1962 and 1969, he became a music legend by creating The Rolling Stones, one of the greatest rock and roll bands ever seen.   Described as one of the most decadent men of the 20th century, he rebelled against everything and when he wasn't hating the world, he adored it. However, his copious consumption of drugs and alcohol was legendary and fuelled a vicious temper.   This is not the story of The Rolling Stones. This is a murder mystery about the death of one of the most talented musicians of the 1960s. He died at the hands of someone he barely knew, on a friendless summer night, having cried wolf for the very last time.
