MURDER IN PARIS is a political crime thriller that traces the motives for the assassination of anti-Apartheid activist, Dulcie September. The story travels from the heart of Paris in March 1988 to the pursuit of justice in 2021. 

A misty spring morning in Paris, 29 March 1988. Dulcie had just visited the post office to collect mail for the ANC office in France, where she served as a Chief Representative of the African National Congress. She would have been completely unaware, as she pressed the lift button to the fourth floor, that an assassin was lurking in the shadows.

“Dulcie September wasn't only murdered but there was an attempt to erase her existence. There was an attempt to remove her from the centre of a very powerful network of players that were supporting the Apartheid government. It was done in a manner that after 30 years we still don't know who killed Dulcie September”. - Hennie van Vuuren, author - Apartheid Guns and Money

In a powerful documentary, Murder in Paris, director Enver Samuel attempts to expose layers of deceit, complicity, hidden agendas in the unsolved mystery of Dulcie September’s murder.
