More than just a game
Chuck Korr with Marvin Close
This is the true account of how the political prisoners of South Africa's infamous Robben Island turned football into an active force in their struggle for freedom. Despite torture, regular beatings and backbreaking labour, these extraordinary men defied all odds and played organised league football in one of the ugliest and most brutal hellholes on earth. Even more astonishingly, they played the game for nearly 20 years with strict adherence to FIFA rules. This incredible story celebrates bravery and heroism and shows how sport has the power to unite and overcome adversity.
