The Oscar nominated film "Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom" is scheduled to be released in Chinese cinemas on July 18th.

Directed by Justin Chadwick, the 2013 British-South African film tells the story Nelson Mandela, from his upbringing, his 27 year incarceration to the end of Apartheid and his eventual presidency.

The film shows many personal details such as his love for his wife Winnie with whom he instantly falls in love.

Although the film came out just weeks after his death, the biopic has performed poorly at the box office worldwide since it was released back in January. However the film could prove more successful here in China in two weeks' time.
