McMillan lived and worked in Zambia and Lesotho in the 1970s where he had the opportunity to interact with the MK cadres.

The interview is one hour long and provides insight into the young life of Chris Hani in exile and his relationship with other young leaders of the time. The interview ends with some speculations on how South Africa would have been had Hani survived and what kind of implications is given through the possible release of Clive David Lewis from prison.
