The Other Man: F.W.de Klerk and the End of Apartheid |The Doc|



Synopsis:


The Other Man is a political thriller about Nobel laureate F.W. de Klerk, South Africa’s last apartheid-era president. In less than four years he went from being Mandela’s jailor to his vice president. Together they changed history for the better and may have prevented a civil war, yet little is known about de Klerk. The documentary explores the fascinating political journey and legacy of this controversial figure.



Reviews:


“Fascinating…tracks his prickly, protean relationship with Nelson Mandela… Even-keeled, Engaging… The stakes were so high and the statesmanship so delicate.” —Jeanette Catsoulis, The New York Times


“Extraordinary…powerful…fascinates. His teaming with Mandela unleashed a wave of right-wing violence.” —Ernest Hardy, The Village Voice


"“Brilliant…effortlessly and brilliantly tells a story many overlooked.” —John Cole-Morgan, The South African
