Robert Harper is discovering the true cost of oil.
LAST GASP

SYNOPSIS
Last Gasp
Inspired by the BBC Documentary -
‘Under Poisoned Skies’
Raad Karim (Waleed Elgadi) has come from Rumaila Iraq with a mission.
His daughter Fatima has leukaemia caused by the toxic air from oil field flaring of methane.
Raad and his brother have tracked down wealthy oil businessman Robert Harper (Sir David Suchet) and his daughter Julianna (Martha Maloney). At first our thriller looks like a kidnap story. In the panic Martha calls the police saying their lives are in danger. But all schoolteacher Raad wants is for Harper to persuade his fellow oil shareholders to stop the flares and help his pupils.
As she learns the truth about her family wealth, Julianna is turning against her father.
Two clocks are ticking - Armed police are on their way and the shareholders meeting is about to start.
Which will play out first…
