Synopsis

Eugene de Kock was a paid white political assassin nick-named "Prime Evil" for his crimes against anti-apartheid activists.

While serving his two life sentences, black psychologist Pumla Gobodo-Madikizela went to interview him hoping to seek humanity and forgiveness within the government-sanctioned monster.

The thought-provoking interogation moves from clinical to intimate in a cell where fear and compassion coexist.
