Tweespalt explores one of rugby's greatest rivalries through a uniquely South African lens. This gripping two-part documentary is more than a story about the Springboks and the All Blacks. It dives deep into identity, loyalty, history and division. Why do some South Africans so passionately support the All Blacks? Through powerful interviews with former players, journalists and supporters, the series unpacks decades of sporting tension shaped by apartheid, politics and personal convictions. With iconic test matches and emotional fan stories, Tweespalt reveals how rugby in South Africa is never just a game. When the Boks play the All Blacks, heritage, emotion and identity collide on and off the field in a rivalry that continues to divide and unite the nation.
