| To be screened at the elegant Soho Hotel, London on Monday 8th February, this opportunity is one that is all the more impressive as approval for the screening has come directly from Eastwood himself.
"Invictus" tells the inspiring true story of how Nelson Mandela (Morgan Freeman) joined forces with the captain of the South African rugby team, Francois Pienaar (Matt Damon), to help unite their country. Newly elected President Mandela knows his country remains racially and economically divided in the wake of apartheid. Believing he can bring his people together through the universal language of sport, Mandela rallies South Africa's underdog rugby team as they make an unlikely run to the 1995 World Cup Championship match.
Wooden Spoon would like to thank Mr. Eastwood, Warner Brothers, Nick Greenway (Light and Motion TV) and Christina Pickworth (Love Me Not Films) for assisting Spoon in securing this opportunity. We would also like to thank Investec Specialist Private Bank for their tremendous support in securing the location and sponsoring this unique and exciting opportunity.
