From terrorist to peacemaker, prisoner to president, Nelson Mandela dedicated his life to the struggle against South Africa's system of apartheid. Touted by the ruling National Party as a policy of separate development, apartheid was the most pervasive form of racism ever practiced and fuelled Mandela's lifelong quest for justice. In this detailed portrait, Nelson Mandela speaks candidly of his fight against racial segregation from the early days of the Rivonia Trial in 1963 through to his incarceration for 27 years on Robben Island and finally to his eventual freedom and the birth of a new nation. Nelson Mandela will celebrate his 90th Birthday with a concert in Hyde Park on 27th June.
