His people needed a leader. He gave them a champion.

Overview

Newly elected President Nelson Mandela knows his nation remains racially and economically divided in the wake of apartheid.

It's much more than JUST rugby

Though the movie doesn't give much insights into the life of the living legend(still breathing among us when I saw this movie) known as NELSON MANDELA, it sure tells us a lot about what the man is made of.That we are the master of our fate, we are the captain of our soul.

Forgiveness is a mighty powerful weapon that can make or break nations.How a sport can unite a divided nation into ONE, it is a well known fact but to actually be able to do that in a country like SOUTH Africa,at a time when it was ready to rise from the ashes or to fall into it... read the rest.
