Panic is a petty gangster who becomes involved in the growing anti-apartheid struggle and must choose between individual gain and a united stand against the system. The film explores the injustices faced by black South Africans during apartheid through the use of flashbacks between Panic's time at the hands of his jailor, Stander, played by Marcel Van Heerden, and happenings in the Johannesburg township of Soweto.
