Vivid retelling of the tragedy at Isandhlwana, when almost eight thousand British troops wwre massacred by the resurgent Zulu army. Effectively the prequel to Rorke's Drift, and thus the basis of Douglas Hickox's eponymous feature film (1979) starring Burt Lancaster, Peter O'Toole, John Mills and a host of other stars.
