| Summary |
"As much as it was achievement by millions, inside South Africa and beyond, the end of apartheid and the establishment of electoral democracy in South Africa was the achievement of one individual, one whose personal story completely contains the suffering and victory of his people: Nelson Mandela. Celebrated as an international hero upon his release from prison in 1990, Nelson Mandela is one of the 20th century's towering leaders. Mandela rose from poverty, against overwhelming odds, to become president of the richest, most culturally diverse country in Africa. The Life and Times of Nelson Mandela seeks to tell the real story behind the man and the documentary contains extensive interviews with Mandela and others, such as Nobel Prize Winners Nadine Gordimer and F.W. De Klerk, Robben Island co-prisoners, Mandela's biographers Alister Sparks, Anthony Sampson and Charlene Smith, and Mandela's friends and family. (From Canada, in English) CC WS" -- website |
