A violent western-type film set in South Africa in the late 1900s. Todd is a local police sergeant with "The Hellions"--a father and his four sons--out to kill him. The townspeople won't back Todd up when the gang harasses him and his wife, and he won't take his wife's advice to quit his
job. Finally the storekeeper is pushed into helping him, and the rest of the town follows suit. Sort of a Boer version of HIGH NOON.
