Best Answer

Hannetjie, a tough new prison guard or warder, takes charge of Span One, a closely-knit group of black political prisoners in a South African work camp. Hannetjie punishes Brille, the prisoner with glasses, severely for stealing and talking back to him. Eventually, Brille catches Hannetjie stealing fertilizer and uses this leverage to strike a bargain with him: the prisoners of Span One enjoy privileges that enable them to endure their long, hard confinement and, in return, they become the hardest workers in camp, helping Hennetjie steal fertilizer and other items he can use on his farm.
