In July 1985, the Greenpeace vessel ‘Rainbow Warrior’ was bombed by French agents, killing the crew photographer. This Australian/New Zealand mini-series recreates the events surrounding the bombing, including the planning, and switches between New Zealand and French locations. The drama revolves around three main characters; Neil Travers, an American journalist, Stuart Irvine, New Zealand’s adviser on International Security and Jenny Cullen, a Greenpeace volunteer.
