Director: Kannan Arunasalam | Producer: Kannan Arunasalam
Focus Years: 2012 | Country: Sri Lanka
Synopsis:
Chandra Schaffter opened bowling for Ceylon against England in 1954. A successful businessman, he also managed the Sri Lankan cricket team to victory at the World Cup in 1996. He talks about the early days of cricket in the country, the clubs that were based on ethnic lines, and the power of cricket to reconcile communities.
This portrait is part of the 'I Am' series, a multimedia project looking at identity through the lives of Sri Lankan elders. The project is trying to engage people with oral history and, through the wisdom of these wonderful elders, to challenge perceptions of identity and explore how this could help bring communities together.
