What an absolutely amazing movie. Speaks many truths. Lies, and fear. Some of us prefer to kill than speak the truth..A great find.

[stephenbezuidenhout]

At face value this is a fantastic movie. The cinematography, the atmosphere and the storytelling is executed @ a international level. I would not know the facts in terms of culture, but so glad to see South Africa is producing art of this standard. The score really gets me!

[JassminaVellucci]

I wanted so much to like this movie. Even though the acting was good. The ending ruined it for me. I wanted to see a movie with black gay storyline. With good acting. The ending could have been better. I understand why it ending that way. I just came access this movie. After seeing it, this is one movie I will not add to my gay collection of films.
