Description
"Time flows differently for those who are cut off from the world."
On a farm outside Pretoria the Swarts gather for the funeral of the family's mother, but beneath the mourning their differences boil over...
From the younger generation, Anton and Amor come to loathe what their family stands for, such as the broken promise to the black maid, Salome, who has spent her entire life working for them.
They once promised her that they would give her her house, her land… but years and decades pass and the promise is never fulfilled.
The narrative flows from one character to another.
And, as the country moves from its dark past of racial discrimination to a – supposedly – fairer present, a much bigger promise, to an entire people, seems to be being broken…
A universal story about the legacies that weigh us down, the families that are hated and loved with equal passion.
The promises upon which lives, families and nations are built.
And the earth, which becomes an apple of strife and a theater of our sufferings, until it accepts us all, just and unjust, in its arms...
