The Terror of Zimbabwe - Mugabe

The word "terror" in the title may be somewhat misleading, we tend to associate the word terror with religious violence as of September 12, 2001. The documentary is clear of religion.

It feels like an immigrant experience, however as the character in the documentary develop the story becomes complicated with lies, fear, ambition and politics.

Those with the darkest imaginations have now become the most powerful. From the BBC
