Very slow and not the least but scary. Plot makes little sense. Poorly developed characters with vague motivations. Yes apartheid was terriible.

Being a South African, I was really happy to stumble upon this film. It's very slow, which adds to the tension, but it's very poignant, especially if you are familiar with he context. Based on the reviews I've seen online, it looks like it's making precisely the right people uncomfy. Worth a watch for sure.

Felt original. Eerie, but not outright horror. Not a bad thing when done this cleanly.
