Shown at the Edinburgh International Film Festival, Edinburgh, Scotland, 13-27 August 1995, it won the Best Documentary prize.
The documentary presents in an emotional way the fact that apparently there is somewhere an agency that categorizes people as important, or non-important, referring to the fact that some politicians and secret service agents canceled their reserves in PanAm flight 103, which were taken by non-important persons, who found a premature death in that flight. One of the persons who canceled his flight was Pik Botha of South Africa. Yet, the documentary omits that on December 22, 1988, the day after PA 103 was sabotaged, apartheid South Africa was scheduled to sign an agreement in NYC handing over control of South-West Africa (Namibia) to the United Nations. The UN Commissioner for Namibia, Bernt Carlsson, was due to attend the signing ceremony in New York but his travel plans were changed at short notice and, as a result, he became one of PA 103's victims.
James Daniel Howard, former undersecretary of the Navy from 1988-89, and a special assistant to president Ronald Reagan from 1986-1988, is one of the persons in the documentary. According to court records, on August 25th and 27th of 2012, Howard, known as J. Daniel Howard during his time in service, allegedly committed the crimes of possession of child pornography and of copying, selling, or transmitting child pornography.
End credits start with this card: "In memory of those who died on Pan Am flight 103 / and for the people of Lockerbie who mourned and picked up the pieces. / And to those of the Scottish police who tried to discover the truth.
/ They are the innocents in this story."
