Two films by award-winning director Georg Troller, made for West German television's arts programme 'Personenbeschriebung'. Sir Laurens van der Post is the subject of the first film. Known in the popular press as a friend and mentor of Prince Charles, Sir Laurens has devoted his life to drawing the world's attention to the plight of Africa's threatened tribes. The second film is a portrait of Texan criminal Albert Sample, whose autobiography Racehoss tells the harrowing story of his 16-year sentence for armed robbery in a notorious Texan prison, and subsequent rehabilitation.
