Now filmed as INVICTUS directed by Clint Eastwood, and starring
Matt Damon and Morgan Freeman as Nelson Mandela. SHORTLISTED FOR
THE WILLIAM HILL SPORTS BOOK OF THE YEAR 2008 As the day of the
final of the 1995 Rugby World Cup dawned, and the Springboks faced
New Zealand's all-conquering All Blacks, more was at stake than a
sporting trophy. When Nelson Mandela appeared wearing a Springboks
jersey and led the all-white Afrikaner-dominated team in singing
South Africa's new national anthem, he conquered the hearts of
white South Africa. Playing the Enemy tells the extraordinary human
story of how that moment became possible. It shows how a sport,
once the preserve of South Africa's Afrikaans-speaking minority,
came to unify the new rainbow nation, and tells of how - just
occasionally - something as simple as a game really can help people
to rise above themselves and see beyond their differences.
