Mario van Niekerk, a reformed gangster, has rescued a thousand children from a perilous fate in the Cape Flats, a notorious district outside Cape Town.
This truly compelling story quitely unfolds away from the spectacle of the World Cup as Mario continues his unaided eight-year-old struggle to win the hearts and minds of youth through the power of the beautiful game.
Rarely does one uncover an epic struggle by an unsung hero to save young minds from a hopeless existence. Mario and The Rude Boys is such a rarity.
