The Leader, His Driver, and the Driver's Wife
“A Black Comedy About the White Right”
1991•1h 25m•6.7•Released
Documentary
Nick Broomfield tries to interview Eugene Terre'Blanche, leader of the sinister neo-nazi AWB Afrikaner Party in South Africa. Cameras capture awkward interactions with skittish AWB supporters, combat training of militant youth, and the coveted interview itself. Broomfield's access to these events is made possible by the leader's driver, whose wavering allegiance to the movement is explored as well.
