A documentary highlighting the life and times of a eccentric real estate mogul and politician who rose from poverty to become one of the largest landowners in The Bahamas.
Sir Harold G Christie is a unique figure in Bahamian history, rising from humble beginnings to achieve remarkable success and an enduring legacy as one of the country’s most powerful – and controversial – icons. In 1943 he achieved notoriety in the Sir Harry Oakes murder trial and this stylish docudrama reveals never before known details about the unsolved cold case. The life and accomplishments of this true Bahamian pioneer – credited by some as putting The Bahamas on the map for Real Estate and Tourism – is explored through interviews with family, contemporaries and cultural icons as well as through narration and archival footage.
