Stylish Hotele Lerallaneng, situated high in Johannesburg’s Mellville’s “koppies” or hills, sets the scene for filmmaker Charlie Vundla’s engaging, authentic and moody drama. Two South African artists find themselves adrift during lockdown – Jabu, a young writer recently out of rehab who hopes to reunite with his young son, and Roxanne, a filmmaker who is about to leave for LA to direct a feature film, however something is stopping her.
These characters struggle with questions of family life and creativity but find refuge and closeness with one another. Charlie Vundla described this film as “A testament to the human spirit, despite the adversities the characters face.”
