GRAAFF-REINET NEWS – On Saturday, October 21, the John Rupert Theatre will screen the movie, A United Kingdom.
A United Kingdom is the true story of the forbidden love of King Seretse Khama of Botswana and Ruth Williams, a white woman from London, which caused an international uproar when they decided to marry in the late 1940s just as apartheid was being introduced into South Africa.
It was a decision that altered the course of African history, as the South African government in alignment with the British didn't want the marriage to succeed.
The doors to the theatre will open at 13:30 with the movie starting at 14:00. Tickets, at R25 each, will be available at the door.
