This is an immigrant story where the stammering interviewee relates his struggles with addiction, homelessness and unemployment as he breaks away from his pro-Apartheid Afrikaner family to move to the US. Unexpectedly, it's a story told in song, with an intriguing use of dubbing and back projections. It expands to include the voices of the directors, who share in the testimony and with whom we finally walk off into the sunset.
