DIR: Odette Geldenhuys / SA / 2010 / 86min

George Bizos is a national treasure, one of the few South African icons that has stayed true to his beliefs of justice for all and this film provides an inside look at his illustrious career and the beliefs that led him there. Director Geldenhuys has had unprecedented access to the man and his daily life – a relaxed Bizos, undaunted by the camera, cooks, swims and celebrates birthdays with Nelson Mandela. He talks freely about his humble beginnings, his work on the Rivonia trial, and his commitment to building the justice system in South Africa. The film is an important document of a very full life; it takes us on the emotional, personal and political journey of one of South Africa’s greatest jurists.
