Hansie | Son of Frank Films

HANSIE: A TRUE STORY

One young man was hungry to be great. The end of Apartheid heralded a new era of hope in South Africa. The country was ripe for young leaders to stand up. He did. He seemed unflinching, magnificent. This was his moment to shine, a National Captain, a hero. But then came the shock. When he confessed his involvement with gambling, he is banned for life from the sport that he gave his life to. This is the powerful true story of Hansie Cronjé's journey to grace, and his quest to answer the question: "Can God ever forgive me?"
