The first time I saw this movie I fell in love with it. This remarkable story of a young boy who grew up completely surrounded by hate in the midst of apartheid in South Africa during World War II. In this movie we see the pains that this boy endures in his life and how he turns that into personal strength. The courage that he has to face up to apartheid is remarkable and the parrallelism between his boxing and his political convictions is remarkable. I found myself so drawn into the life of P.K. so much that I had to go out and read the book by Bryce Courtney. The soundtrack is also remarkable; the music provides a perfect backdrop to the story line and it is equally as powerful.
