Breaker Morant (1980) on Netflix

During the Boer War, three Australian lieutenants are on trial for shooting Boer prisoners. Though they acted under orders, they are being used as scapegoats by the General Staff, who hopes to distance themselves from the irregular practices of the war. The trial does not progress as smoothly as expected by the General Staff, as the defence puts up a strong fight in the courtroom. —Kasper Sevaj court martialbased on true storybased on playcharacter name as titlenickname in title188 morePlot summaryAdd synopsisTaglinesWhen they speak of heroes - of villains - of men who look for action, who choose between honor and revenge - they tell the story of Breaker MorantGenresDramaHistoryWarCertificatePGParents guide
