Synopsis

In the depressed cape Town neighborhood of Cape Flats, a single mother contemplates her fate and cautiously accepts the help of an overeager social worker as she struggles to care for her paraplegic and suicidal son.

Editorial

Produced by Roland Emmerich, this sobering debut from Oliver Hermanus (The History of Sound) reveals the hidden trauma inflicted by gang violence. Nervy, jagged camerawork evinces the spiraling inner world of a grieving mother, whose turmoil embodies the plight of working-class South Africans.
