In the depths of an ancient forest, something has been growing. Something older than humanity itself, and perhaps greater too. When a park ranger discovers a man and his son living wild, she stumbles onto a secret that is about to change the world.

A NASA interrogator is tasked with helping an amnesiac astronaut recover his memory in order to determine “who” or “what” killed the rest of the crew before they crash-landed back on Earth.

1901, South Africa. As the Second Anglo-Boer War rages on, a wounded General seeks refuge in the small home of a woman and her young daughter. As the hurt man settles in, he begins noticing that something is off about the two women, particularly the daughter, and before long, he’ll learn the real reason for why they’ve invited him and for how they’ve survived on their own for so long.

A feared gang leader is released on parole after seven years. Has Map Jacobs changed, or is he still the bully? A family and community drama that takes place against the forced relocations from the Cape to the Plains. This piece gives a look at the way of life of the uprooted, their love and pain and the desperate longing for a better existence in a system that especially fails the defenseless.

What is supposed to be the best holiday of their lives turns to horror as a group of teenagers is picked off one by one in a small coastal village.

A gripping South African Christmas movie about a dysfunctional family and their beach holiday that forces them to come to terms with their flaws, differences, hate and love for each other.

RATGIRL is the digital avatar of artist Jazzard Jaslyn, who crafts endurance performance pieces staged through Instagram stories which re-enact indignities still faced by marginalised people in post-apartheid South Africa. But this country is lonely is most concerned with the dehumanising and flattening effect social media has on our understanding of complex humanitarian crises.

A gritty prison drama, a story about stories, memories inherited become weapons in the mouths of prisoners. Four men in a cramped cell struggle for space to sleep, sit, speak, think. When everyone screams at once, a strange truth emerges.
