BACKGROUND OF ‘DEATH OF A WHISTLEBLOWER’

Death of a Whistleblower is inspired by the recent stories of real-life South Africa’s whistle-blowers. The film takes a deep dive into South Africa’s struggle over state capture and the sheer power of principled speech.

Bizcommunity reports the filmmakers chose the path of a fictional thriller to highlight the challenges faced by local whistleblowers over the past 25 years.

Film-maker Ian Gabriel says: “One cannot overestimate the courage of those who have risked life and limb to expose the corruption that pervades our society.”

“The film is a homage to the few brave and principled truth tellers and journalists who continue to battle for the right to reveal truth in an age of unprecedented, manufactured reality.”
