While You Weren't Looking


While You Weren't Looking
Set in Cape Town, we follow assorted gay and lesbian couples from all walks of life, whose intertwining tales present a humourous, inventive and dramatic take on contemporary life in South Africa. It is through the eyes and experiences of a cross-section of queers, black, white and coloured, cruisy singles, married couples with children, city and township dwellers, apartheid survivors and born frees, professionals and skollies, that we see the South African contemporary landscape unfold.
