Summary:	I 1880-årene, da de europeiske "supermakter" delte opp Afrika, bemektiget Kong Leopold II av Belgia seg det enorme og for det meste uoppdagede territoriet rundt elven Kongo. Han iscenesatte et folkemord og et plyndringstokt uten sidestykke i historien inntil da. Han røvet landet for dets gummi og elfenben, brutaliserte befolkningen, og sist men ikke minst utryddet han 10 millioner av Kongos innbyggere, hele tiden mens han rendyrket sitt omdømme som den store humanist.
