Directed by Amma Asante, A United Kingdom<\/a><\/em> follows the lives of two very extraordinary people during a time of significant change in South Africa. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Based on the true story of the forbidden love between King Seretse Khama of Botswana, played by David Oyelowo, and Ruth Williams, played by Rosamund Pike, a white woman from London, which caused an international uproar when they married in the late 1940s, just as apartheid was introduced in South Africa, a decision that altered the course of African history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s good to see Pike in this role. Definitely, it is a unique role from Gone Girl<\/a><\/em>. Asante directed Belle<\/a><\/em>, another true story about crossing the racial line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
