A post-apartheid film in which the characters are less concerned with politics than with matters of the heart, " and I tend to agree. I expected it to be meatier (like Crash), but found it wasn't that at all --------- and that's okay. It's light-hearted, most of the time, and even though the area is definitely Capetown, and the accents and colors of the people vary, what they are going through is very universal. i liked that it centered around an animal shelter and that all these people are intertwined with having to do with the shelter. A nice, well written script, and some very winning personalities, here. I give it a 4.
Mark Bamford's thought-provoking comedy explores the ever-present friction between class, race and faith in modern-day South Africa, tracing the intersection of multiple lives. Although her tiny animal shelter is open to all creatures great and small, Kate (Debbie Brown) still can't seem to open her heart to romance. Meanwhile, her employees and clientele (including Eriq Ebouaney, Nthati Moshesh and Morne Visser) are in need of rescue themselves.
