Sulawesi, 1946. As the people’s movement rolls inexorbly towards the
establishment of an Indonesian republic, Dutch colonial rule is on the brink of
collapse. The Braak family faces the inevitable, but not before confronting the
truth about their own lives and the legacy they will leave behind. A remarkable
insight into turbulent times and a powerful human drama about people whose
lives are set to change forever.
