Viewing Notes
One of the bonus movies included for FF@Home / FF2021. I don’t even recall this title from a previous FF but it’s cool that it was selected. It’s more drama than comedy. The humor comes from how these two teens deal w/their mishandling their stash for a big drug deal. The story didn’t really grab me but I love all the on-location shooting in South Africa from the townships to the neighborhoods.
