The Leader, His Driver and the Driver's Wife is a feature-length documentary film about apartheid in South Africa, particularly Eugène Terre'Blanche, founder of the AWB. The film is made by Nick Broomfield.

Throughout the film, Broomfield attempts to set up an interview with the control-obsessed Terre'Blanche, who stubbornly breaks all of the plans he makes with Nick in order to prove his power. What this actually does is expose Terre'Blanche as someone clinging on to the remains of any influence they may have once had.

For the majority of the film where Broomfield is unable to get an interview with the Leader himself, his attention is drawn to the driver and his wife, hence the title.
