When the Cradock Four’s Fort Calata was murdered by agents of the apartheid state in 1985 his son, Lukhanyo, was only three years old. Thirty-one years later Lukhanyo, now a journalist, becomes one of the SABC 8 when he defies Hlaudi Motsoeneng’s reign of censorship at the public broadcaster by writing an open letter that declares: my father didn’t die for this. With his wife, Abigail, Lukhanyo brings to life the father he never knew and investigates the mystery that despite two high-profile inquests surrounds his death. Join them in a poignant and inspiring journey into the history of a remarkable family. 'My Father Died for This' traces the struggle against apartheid beginning with Fort's grandfather, treason trialist and ANC secretary-general Canon James Calata.
