More Than Just a Game
On an island beyond hope, football was their salvation
Pass the ball, not the bomb...
Set during the apartheid years, this film takes a look at some of the inmates of Robben Island. Separated from society, they sought refuge in an unlikely place: soccer. Through the game, they built a community and kept their spirits up.
