Siya Kolisi's Moving Call to Discover South Africa's Hidden Beauty

Embark on a Journey of Discovery: Siya Kolisi's Invitation to Unveil South Africa's Hidden Beauty
In the wake of South Africa’s triumphant rugby victories in 2019 and 2023, Siya Kolisi, the revered captain of the national rugby team, has taken centre stage in a new advert for South African Tourism. Unlike the typical celebratory tone, Kolisi’s script strikes a sombre chord, urging viewers to look beyond the surface and discover the profound beauty that lies hidden within the diverse landscapes of South Africa.
The opening lines poignantly acknowledge the world’s recognition of South Africa’s best on the rugby field, but Kolisi swiftly redirects the narrative to the less-explored facets of the country. The powerful assertion that “our best has no fixed address” lays the foundation for a reflective journey, challenging viewers to seek out the often-overlooked wonders that make South Africa extraordinary.
“…slow down, take a closer look, and appreciate the richness that lies just beyond the obvious.”

The script emphasizes the idea that discovering South Africa’s true essence may require effort, patience, and a willingness to delve deeper. In a world that often rushes past the subtleties of beauty, Kolisi’s words serve as a call to slow down, take a closer look, and appreciate the richness that lies just beyond the obvious.
