'51 Dons (2014)
Excellent Movie

As Nelson Mandela said, "sport has the power to change the world," and 51 Dons is a great example of this. 51 Dons shows how the unification of a team has the power transcend barriers. This movie also shows how the value of teamwork and camaraderie is achieved and honored through overcoming oppression and going against social norms. Although 51 Dons is a story of racial segregation, the story and struggle depicted and told by these young athletes replicates itself throughout history even into modern day society (gender inequality in sport, diversity, and inclusion). If there is a sport movie out there can add a humane element to a historic tale, 51 dons is the movie to watch. You won't be disappointed.
