Abstract: | Based on 'Long Walk to Freedom', the 1995 autobiography by Nelson Mandela, anti-apartheid revolutionary and politician, this feature film depicts Nelson Mandela's extraordinary journey from his childhood in a rural village through to his election as President of South Africa. It explores the Mandela unknown to most of the world - the lover of fancy cars, a lady's man, the boxing enthusiast and playboy, the skilful lawyer and a freedom fighter. A portrait of the making of a modern icon. [Abstract reproduced from dvd-video] |
