Moffie on IMDb

Nicholas (Kai Luke Brummer) has long known he is different, that there is something in him that must stay hidden, denied even. But in South Africa in 1981, all white young men over 16 must serve two years of compulsory military service to defend the Apartheid regime and its culture of toxic racist machismo. When fear pushes Nicholas to accept unspeakable horrors in the hopes of staying invisible, a tender relationship with another recruit becomes as dangerous for them both as any enemy fire.

This wasn’t an easy decision, but we’re incredibly proud of what we achieved in that time, and are grateful for the experiences and opportunities that came our way.

What we think

Hermanus manages to create coherence from all the different, sometimes contradictory aspects of Nicholas’s existence, revealing how a person continues to reassess their life and their self as they carry on living and encountering new challenges and possibilities.

What others think

Oliver Hermanus has fashioned a striking apartheid-era drama about a gay recruit in the South African military.
Simran Hans The Guardian
Following three fine features of steadily increasing ambition, Moffie is Hermanus’ masterpiece in the true sense of the term: the film that consolidates all the promise and preoccupations of his previous work into one quite stunning feat of formal and narrative artistry, establishing him quite plainly as South Africa’s most vital contemporary filmmaker.
