Please bookmark or share this documentary using the social buttons on the right to help increase awareness of important issues raised in each documentary. It only takes 1 second/click and is gratefully received!
In the background, the documentary throws a light on the Vietnam War and the draft, the nascent “Black is Beautiful” movement and idealization of Mother Africa, and the brutal reality of post-colonial dictatorships, issues which were characteristics of the 1970s.
The film tactfully incorporates news footage, photos, and contemporary interview clips to reveal the excitement and chaos that led up to the famed “Rumble in the Jungle” and the incredible characters and events surrounding the thrilling spell.
Blending sports, drama and biography with a touch of political analysis, When We Were Kings relates the who, when, where, and why of the celebrated match with Muhammad Ali towering at the centre of it all like a true hero!
