Synopsis by Rovi

In a South African town obsessed with strength and masculinity, Janno (Brent Vermeulen) is a fifteen-year-old boy who, despite looking quite muscular, is emotionally frail. His mother (Juliana Venter) decides to adopt Pieter (Alex Van Dyk), a fearless and sure-of-himself street orphan who is Janno's total opposite. The two boys start a fight for the alpha position in the family and their mother's love. Directed and written by Etienne Kallos.
