Johannes Kerkorrel was responsible for two bombs that hit white Afrikaners: in the late 1980s when he stood as a controversial political figure at the forefront of the Voëlvrytoer, and in 2002 with his sudden suicide.
Ironically, more was written and said about him after his death, than during his life.
This film looks at what made him who he was, his impact on culture, and why people continue to pay tribute to him two decades after his death.
Friends in the music industry share their memories of him, including Amanda Strydom, Karen Meiring, Stef Bos and Valiant Swart.
Willem Möller and Jannie Hanepoot van Tonder, Kerkorrel's band mates in the Gereformeerde Blues Band, are also part of the documentary.
