Long Street

From the talented Revel Fox, who brought us the memorable local film The Flyer, comes a Cape Town-inspired art film that juxtaposes the splendour of the province with the ugliness of its social issues. Strained relationships, drug addiction and unrealised dreams are offset by incredibly beautiful cinematography and music, which represents a key redemptive element throughout.

This is not your mindless crowd pleaser; it is intended to evoke emotion and make you look at Long Street differently. It’s a triumph.

Rating: 4 outta 5.
