Bob Rugurika is at the head of RPA, the most popular independent radio station in Burundi. As a passionate investigative journalist, he is a champion of free speech. The RPA continues to challenge the regime and becomes public enemy number one. When President Pierre Nkurunziza is determined to start a third term of office and wants to change the constitution, things get even more tense. Will Bob continue to risk his life in his fight for freedom of the press, at a time when all dissident voices are being nipped in the bud?
