The first major investigation into Roland "Tiny" Rowland whose company, Lonrho, was 20 years ago unforgettably castigated by Edward Heath as "this unacceptable face of capitalism". At that time, surrounded by scandal and allegations of greed and deception, Rowland's ambitions seemed devastated.
Ever since he has fought a bitter campaign to establish his respectability and importance. Few men in public life have so successfully concealed their activities and provoked such controversy. Robert Maxwell 's biographer Tom Bower has written and produced this film which attempts to discover the man behind the multimillionaire, merchant adventurer, political intriguer and accomplished powerbroker. He unravels Rowland's past and interviews those who have benefited and suffered from his ambition.
