A long-awaited movie on Nelson Mandela’s life, which will premiere in South Africa on Sunday, has been described as a “very emotional” and accurate portrayal by one of his daughters.

The movie “Mandela, Long Walk to Freedom”, largely based on his autobiography of the same name, traces the life of the anti-apartheid icon from his childhood in the rural Eastern Cape to his election as the country’s first black president in 1994.

The release comes as South Africa remains on edge about the health of the 95-year-old peace icon who spent three months in hospital in a critical condition with a lung infection this year.

He has been receiving intensive care at his Johannesburg home since being discharged on September 1, and updates on his health from government and family have been sporadic.
