- DirectorJames Cellan JonesStarsLarry LambChris CooperPhilip Michael ThomasSunshine, an idyllic and almost forgotten island under British rule, is shortly to become independent. But a few days before this event is to take place, the British governor of the island is shot. Her Majesty's secret service is called in and Sam McCready asks Desmond Hannah of Scotland Yard to take charge of the case. When Hannah arrives on Sunshine, he notices the subdued atmosphere of fear reigning there. An aggressive presidential election campaign is being conducted, but neither of the two candidates appears to be very trustworthy. The attractive widow Lady Beatrix Coltrane tells Hannah that most of the island's inhabitants are not looking forward to independence because they fear that either of the two candidates for the presidency will abuse the island for his own benefit. One of them, Tomson, is probably involved in illegal drug-peddling in connection with the Colombian Medellin cartel; the other one, Livingstone, is said to be collaborating with the Cuban government. Lady Beatrix' representations are confirmed by Reverend Drake, the island's priest, whom Hannah also discovers to be a strict opponent of independence. Ernie Favaro, a policeman from Miami, arrives on Sunshine. He is investigating the murder of one of his colleagues by members of the Medellin cartel. A hot trail has brought him to the island. The two cases could be connected, and Hannah and Favaro agree to collaborate. But as they have no official permission to carry on their investigations, they are in constant danger of being arrested by the local chief constable, himself suspected of corrupt behaviour. Shortly after the two policemen called on Tomson, one of the candidates for the presidency, somebody tries to kill them. But they are able to intercept and arrest the gunner. To their surprise, he is none other than Reverend Drake. He claims to have missed the target on purpose, intending to draw the attention of the international press to the precarious political situation on the island. After the arrest of Reverend Drake, the chief constable at last has a pretext for apprehending Hannah and Favaro for illegal possession of firearms. But suddenly, to everybody's surprise, Sam McCready arrives on the scene and identifies himself as the interim governor of the island. He takes charge of the case himself. Lady Beatrix makes certain insinuations which lead Hannah to conjecture that she is the perpetrator of the governor's death. Her motive, like Drake's, appears to have been to draw inter-national attention to Sunshine. But Hannah has no proof for his theory. Meanwhile, Ernie Favaro believes to have found a hot scent in the case of his murdered colleague. When he had called on candidate Tomson, he had noticed a valuable edition of Milton's "Paradise Lost". This is the book his murdered collegue had mentioned in connection with the Medellin cartel. Favaro is able to convince governor Sam McCready that Tomson's house must be searched. But the governor prefers the elegant British solution and pays an official first visit to Tomson. This gives Favaro the opportunity to pocket the book. In it, he finds a microfilm with incriminatory data such as the names, bank accounts, business partners, funds etc. of the Medellin cartel. Tomson is shot when he tries to leave Sunshine. The presidential election is postponed until further notice. Sam McCready, who has already become used to the comforts of a diplomat's life, drinks to Lady Beatrix health on her veranda. He is quite willing to let sleeping dogs lie where the death of his predecessor is concerned, and to ask the widow no further questions...

- StarsIsabelle GélinasDerek de LintJason ConneryFrance, 1915. Young and radiantly beautiful Centaine de Thiry is the happiest woman in the world: in a few more hours she will be married to pilot Michael Courteney, the love of her life. But fate has it otherwise: Michael is shot down in a reconnaissance plane shortly before his wedding. Life has lost its meaning for Centaine. When the young woman realizes soon afterwards that she is expecting a baby, her zest for live is revived. She decides to give birth to the child in South Africa, the home country of her deceased fiancé. She starts on her long voyage, planning to stay with an uncle. However, Centaine's boat is attacked and sunk by a submarine. She uses all her strength to cling to a gangplank. Many hours later, she is washed ashore on the African coast suffering from hypothermia and exhaustion. Soon after, Hani and Owi, an old native couple, find her. The old people look after Centaine lovingly and care for her until she has completely recovered. The two Africans and the young European woman have a feeling of strong affection for each other. When the birth of her child is due, the couple take Centaine to a Holy Mountain inside which Centaine is delivered of Shasa, a healthy boy. While Centaine is recovering inside the mountain and her foster parents are looking for food, she makes a little necklace of multi-coloured stones as a gift for Hani to thank her for all the love and care she has given to Centaine. A knife which she could save from shipwreck serves her as a present for Owi. In the meantime, Sir Garrick Courteney, the late Michael's uncle, has started a thorough search operation, promising a big reward to anyone who would locate Centaine. Lothar de la Rey, a shady character and adventurer, has also heard about this reward. He roams about the bush with a bunch of criminals. Lothar makes Sir Garrick promise him that he and his men would be granted amnesty if he were to find Centaine, and so he sets out to look for her. Centaine has meanwhile decided to return to civilisation. As she knows that this farewell would break the old couple's heart, she leaves Hani and Owi secretly at night. Centaine struggles through the rough wilderness with her little son. When a lion suddenly jumps at her, Centaine's fate seems to be sealed. At the very last minute Lothar, who had tracted her, comes to her rescue. Centaine falls in love at first sight with her charming, good-looking rescuer. A passionate love affair takes its course in the picturesque scenery of the African bush. A short time later, Lothar discovers Hani and Owi who are searching for Centaine right near his camp. For Lothar natives are no more than wild animals. When he leaves the camp shortly afterwards to go hunting, Centaine follows him surreptitiously. To her utmost horror she has to witness how Lothar shoots Hani and Owi in cold blood. At that moment she feels that she has never truly loved Lothar. In fact, she begins to hate him. Centaine picks up Hani's necklace and Owi's knife to keep them. Before long, Centaine reaches Sir Garrick's house safe and sound. She never wants to see Lothar again. Soon afterwards, she learns from the owner of a diamond mine that a large stone on Hani's necklace is an uncut diamond. She remembers now that she had seen many stones of this kind in the Holy Mountain and decides to buy the mountain. At the same time, Centaine realizes that she is pregnant again - this time with Lothar's child. Since she does not want to have his child near her, she leaves her son Manfred with his father. Lothar is still in love with Centaine and tries everything to win back her affection. But Centaine has made up her mind - she has left him for good. Therefore Lothar tells Manfred that his mother is dead. Years go by and Centaine has become the richest woman in Africa. She only lives for her son Shasa and her business imperium which grows from day to day. One day, she buys up a bankrupt canning factory owned by Lothar and ruins him. Infuriated, he swears to take revenge. When he learns that Centaine is heavily in debt due to her attempts of taking over new companies, he senses his opportunity. He decides to hold up the diamond transfer which is so important for Centaine, together with his son and a gang of criminals, and to rob the stones Centaine urgently needs to convert into cash to improve her financial situation. Disregarding the warning of the ambitious politician Blaine, a friend for many years, Centaine goes out into the bush to the diamond mine herself to supervise the transfer which means so much to her. When the stones are finally ready for transportation, the mine workers go on strike. They feel they are exploited and badly paid. So Centaine and her son Shasa are forced to proceed alone, with diamonds worth two million pounds in their luggage. Out in the wilderness, mother and son are assaulted and robbed by Lothar and Manfred. Centaine calls Blaine to her rescue. Supported by a group of soldiers, the adventurous pursuit begins. Chased by Centaine and Blaine, Lothar has to fight his way through the bush with his son and men. The flight becomes more and more arduous, especially since Lothar has been severely injured in an accident. Besides, Lothar's men have reached a point where sheer greed prevails so that Manfred has a very hard time defending his father and the diamonds. Finally, Centaine and Blaine succeed in catching the criminals in a trap from which there is no escape. Lothar is facing a gigantic impassable waterfall, with his pursuers following on his heels. A terrible fight ensues in the course of which many of Lothar's men die. When Shasa aims at Manfred, Centaine tries to prevent Shasa from killing his half-brother.
