Rassie (2022)
Rassie: The Official Film takes us all the way back to the beginning of the journey that fan-favourite Rassie Erasmus took to becoming SA Rugby’s director of rugby.
We see the world through the eyes of young Johan, who grew up in Despatch under apartheid and went on to become a generational talent on the field. Recognised as a leader of men, he changed his career path to become a coach using methods ahead of his time.
Produced by the makers of the award-winning Chasing the Sun and Two Sides (both also streaming on Showmax), this is an 80-minute adventure into the mind of the man who looked his challenges in the eye, and gave Springbok fans and players a fresh dose of hope – and another World Cup trophy.
Rassie is currently streaming on Showmax Pro and lands on Showmax Standard on 23 December 2022.
