September is our Heritage Month in one of the harshest years that South Africa has ever faced. But if there’s one message that has come through to us during the lockdown, it’s that we are stronger together. And heading into October, new documentary series Chasing The Sun will keep that flag flying as it explores what it is within us as South Africans that allows us to not only survive the worst but to do our best. It starts on Sunday 4 October on M-Net (*101) at 18:00 with Siya Kolisi, the first black captain of the Springbok rugby team, lifting the William Webb Ellis Cup at the 2019 Rugby World Cup in Japan.
FROM DEFEAT TO GLORY
DStv Premium viewers will crush those Sunday blues in October thanks to this uplifting collaboration between M-Net and SuperSport. Chasing The Sun tells the story of the Springbok rugby team and their journey from dejection and underperforming, to becoming champions of the world. And you don’t have to have watched a minute of rugby or even care about sports to take that in and appreciate the triumph.
