“A moment of political history too sensitive to be revealed for more than a decade.” - Guardian

From Pete Travis (Vantage Point) comes Endgame, a political thriller that follows the precarious development of a series of secret talks that were instrumental in dismantling the apartheid system in South Africa.

When a mining company with interests in South Africa seeks to secure the company's future by brokering a meeting between vitriolic political opponents at a country retreat in England, the talks become a critical pivot point in a race against time to prevent imminent bloodshed.

Stars Jonny Lee Miller and William Hurt.

Endgame drops us into this brutal conflict's control centers: Nelson Mandela's prison, Botha's chambers, ANC headquarters, and, to our surprise, the rented car of a British businessman.” - Sundance Film Festival
