Product description

In the coastal city of Luderitz in Namibia, the meeting of the desert and the ocean, the horrific history turns into a personal event when a filmmaker named Henry Van Fick has to face tragic facts that shaped his life path. But that peaceful land hides a bloody history: once, Shark Island was the site of a concentration camp, and now law firms are suing the German government for its role in the genocide of Namibia's indigenous peoples. And when Henry begins conducting interviews with the descendants of survivors, their testimonies force him to dig in the desert in search of a mass grave. Number of pages: 360
