| Description |
Set in South Africa in December 1989. On the back edge of a shabby travelling playground on New Year's Eve, Gideon arrives looking ostensibly for a good time but deep down for some salvation for his knawing guilt. He is met by the resident caretaker Martinus who also has something on his mind, and is not interested, at first, in helping this intrusive white man. |
