The story of a young New Zealander, who was killed during the Dili massacre in East Timor by the Indonesian military. Kamal Barnadhaj was a New Zealand-Malaysian student of history and Indonesian politics who traveled to East Timor to lend his support to the pro-democracy movement. Three weeks later he was dead, gunned down by the Indonesian military. His death set his mother, Helen Todd, on a personal and political campaign that spanned five countries and four years, and culminated in a landmark legal case against the Indonesian government.
