Over 1.5 million dead in Biafra (Nigeria)! How was it possible that this appalling massacre could last for so long… from June 1967 to Jan. 1970?! Because one country supported Biafra continuously: France!
This film investigates, leaving no room for doubt as to the full extent of French involvement in the Biafran crisis: for the first time, the main players of the time - from France and abroad - testify and admit to their actions in this secret war.
