Synopsis

Hero or villain? His exploits shook an empire ... and made him a legend. When they speak of heroes, of villains, of men who look for action, who choose between honour and revenge, they will tell the true story of an Australian they called The Breaker - Lieutenant Harry Morant. It is 1901 South Africa. The British war against the Boers had deteriorated into bitter guerilla warfare. A grim precursor of wars to come. A unit of the Bushveldt Carbineers made up of mainly Australians is ordered by the British High Command to fight the Boer on their terms, and take no prisoners. Orders that were to prove fatal for Harry Morant. This classic Australian motion picture of injustice and the horror of war, has swept the world to become one of the most acclaimed Australian movies ever made.
