In 1879 Zululand, South Africa, the British are fighting the Zulus, and one of their columns has just been wiped out at Isandlwana. The Zulus next fix their sights on the small British outpost at Rorkes Drift. At the outpost are 150 British troops under the command of Lieutenants Bromhead and Chard. In the next few days, these 150 troops will fight about 4,000 Zulus in one of the most courageous battles in history.
Two Lieutenants, Chard of Engineers and Bromhead, find that their 150-man contingent in Natal has been isolated by the destruction of the main British Army column, and that 4,000 Zulu warriors will descend on them in a few hours. Each has a different military background in tactics, and they are immediately in conflict on how to prepare for the attack. Nearly a third of the men are in the infirmary, as the Welsh company tries to somehow survive with no help in sight. Based on a true story.
