    Die Sinne betörend, die Fantasie beflügelnd, alles verzehrendNach dem Bestseller "Schatten im Wasser" wird die epische Südafrikageschichte um Catherine und ihre Farm Inqaba fortgeschrieben.Als der Zulukönig Cetshwayo im Winter 1878 an einem geheimen Ort seinen inneren Rat zusammenruft, ist der unheilvolle Wind, den der weiße Mann gesät hat, längst zu einem Sturm geworden. Die Schwarzen fühlen sich bedroht von weißen Siedlern, die wie Heuschrecken über das Land herfallen. Noch steht Inqaba, die Farm von Catherine und Johann, unter dem Schutz des Königs, doch als ein geheimer Unbekannter mit Intrigen und Waffen die Zulus aufhetzt, scheint das Paradies der Steinachs bedroht. Und weil Catherines Sohn Stefan gegen alle Widerstände sein geliebtes Zulumädchen Lulamani geheiratet hat, steht die Familie bald zwischen allen Fronten. Zudem macht Catherine sich größte Sorgen um ihre unbeugsame Tochter Maria, die sich gegen den Willen der Eltern auf den langen Weg nach Deutschland gemacht hat, um dort Medizin zu studieren. Briefe kommen erst nach Wochen an, und so ahnt Maria im kalten fernen Hamburg nicht, dass schon ein Funke genügt, um ihre Heimat in Brand zu stecken.

    Harry Beltway, idealistic young conservative and grandson of a famous evangelist, has just come back from a two-years tour as a missionary when he is persuaded to join the campaign staff of Tim Duncannon, an arch-conservative television commentator who has set his sights on the Republican nomination for presidency so that he can build a barbed wire fence around America. As a candidate, Duncannon wows conservative fundamentalist Americans with his promises to protect them from Zulus and wetbacks and his reassurances that school prayer will someday return and abortionists will disappear. Harry must run interference when Duncannon's campaign starts to fall apart after accusations of campaign bullying (Duncannon's brothers are harassing and beating up his opponents), sexual misconduct (Duncannon is discovered having semi-weekly rendezvous with a mysterious blonde), and devil worship (Duncannon is caught channeling the spirit of Richard Nixon, his former boss). Along the way Harry starts a confusing love affair with a fellow campaign worker that turns out to be, literally, a drag. Language: English. Narrator: Arte Johnson.

    Während eines Aufstands in der britischen Kolonie Islandwana töten Zulu-Krieger 1.500 Soldaten der Besatzer. Vom Sieg berauscht belagern sie ein Materiallager, das nur von 139 walisischen Soldaten bewacht wird. Ein dramatischer Kampf entbrennt zwischen den aufgebrachten Zulus und den verhassten Kolonialherren, von denen fast ein Drittel auf der Krankenstation liegt...Zulu ist einer der wirklich großen Kinofilme. Ein episches Abenteuer über Mut im Angesicht des Unmöglichen. Basierend auf einer wahren Begebenheit erzählt der Film die Geschichte von 100 britischen Soldaten und ihrer Verteidigung der Rorkes Drift gegen eine Übermacht von 4.000 Zulu-Kriegern im Jahre 1879. Eindrucksvoll fotografiert in Breitwandformat, gelingt es wie bei kaum einem anderen Film, die Spannung und die Grausamkeit einer Schlacht fühlbar zu machen, in der Welle um Welle der Angreifer von einer winzigen Garnison zurückgeschlagen wird. Vor der Kulisse der beeindruckenden Landschaft Südafrikas ist der Film Zulu ein Meilenstein des Monumental-Kinos und ein Tribut an eine der herausragendsten Heldentaten in der Geschichte der Kriegsführung. Michael Caines Rolle als arroganter, aber mutiger Lt. Bromhead brachte ihm internationalen Starruhm. Brillante Darstellungen zeigen auch die großen britischen Schauspieler Stanley Baker und Jack Hawkins.

    In January 1879, three columns of British soldiers under the command of Lord Chelmsford, commenced the invasion of the Zulu Kingdom. The southern No. 1 Column led by Colonel Charles Pearson advances on the old mission station at Eshowe. Their intent is to establish a fort and supply depot from which to support the centre No. 3 Column’s advance on the Zulu royal kraal at Ulundi. As the vast column of British soldiers and their African allies slogs its way across the coastal hills, the incessant rain and threat of typhoid promise to be as fearful a nemesis as the lurking armies of Zulu warriors.Unbeknownst to Pearson, calamity struck a hundred miles to the north when nearly half of No. 3 Column is destroyed during a catastrophic battle at a mountain called Isandlwana. Despite the garrison at Rorke’s Drift subsequent repelling of the Zulu onslaught, the entire invasion is left in tatters. Over a thousand imperial soldiers now lie dead, in a war which the Crown never authorised or wanted.Over the coming days, the Zulus surround the fort at Eshowe, cutting off all communications and resupply efforts. With the British Empire now reluctantly committed to war, reinforcements are dispatched from England. In a race against time, Lord Chelmsford rallies the arriving forces into a relief column. Should they fail to break through to Eshowe and relieve the garrison, Colonel Pearson and another thousand British soldiers will suffer the same fate as the poor souls whose bodies still lie unburied along the slopes of Isandlwana. ungekürzt.
