Synopsis
DANNY SCHECHTER is an American journalist and a documentary filmmaker who made six nonfiction films with Mandela and who was asked personally by the filmmakers of Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom to make a five-hour television documentary about the making of the forthcoming film. Schechter has worked in South Africa since the 1960s, which has given him unprecedented access to insiders. Schechter wrote about the liberation struggle and produced a TV news magazine for three years in its most crucial years 1988–91. Having worked both in public television and for CNN and ABC News, Schechter has been part of the anti-apartheid movement globally, earning him the confidence of many activists and leaders. He continues to work around the world and lives in New York City. ANANT SINGH is widely recognized as South Africa’s pre-eminent film producer, having produced sixty-five films since 1984, including Sarafina! , Red Dust , Captives and The Road to Mecca . Nelson Mandela called him “a producer I respect very much . . . a man of tremendous ability” when he granted him the film rights to his autobiography; Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom premiered in the US in November 2013.
