The late Nelson Mandela’s story is set to be unveiled in a new docu-series.
The Nelson Mandela Foundation has reportedly announced a documentary titled “Mandela: Life” eleven years after his death. It is said to be the late statesman’s story, “in his own words, narrated in his voice.”
News24 reports that the docu-series has been in development for two years, and will be released globally on Freedom Day, 27 April next year. It will include five parts and will detail the story of Mandela’s life “the period in South African history from 1984 to 1994, the ‘deadly decade’ during which thousands of people died in political violence.”
It will tell the story of his imprisonment during a time of violence and division, and the journey that led to him being elected president of South Africa.
The publication reports that Mandela’s foundation, the official custodian of Mandela’s personal archive, granted the publisher of “five books with and about Nelson Mandela, Blackwell & Ruth,” (its longtime partner) exclusive permission to create the series. They then partnered with renowned filmmaker Mandla Dube to direct and will co-produce the series with his production company, Pambilimedia.
Dube said, “We are decolonising the lens and the framework of who Nelson Mandela was. There are certain nuances and subtleties that we haven’t seen in films made by international filmmakers about Nelson Mandela because there’s a certain voice that comes with being a child of the soil.”
