The Long Duel
“The blazing passions of a land…its proud warriors…its exotic women…bursting aflame in revolt!”
Synopsis
An idealistic colonial police officer is sent to capture a rebel leader who threatens the stability of the Raj's north-west frontier. Despite his official colonial capacity, the policeman is impressed by the ingenuity and integrity of his enemy and is determined to arrest him alive rather than bring him in dead as his superiors might wish.
