Die Bloedhonde (2024)

While camping with her family, Katrien starts to suspect that the beloved local dominee might be responsible for an apparent suicide at the resort. With a middle-aged drifter as her only ally, she throws everything into the battle to prove the church, the community and her own family wrong.

SAFTA nominees Elani Dekker (Toorbos) and Tobie Cronjé (Binnelanders) star as Katrien and dominee Lukas respectively, with Waldemar Schultz (Die Byl) as the drifter.

Die Bloedhonde is written and directed by Stiaan Smith, SAFTA-winning co-creator of Hotel, and produced by Nagvlug, the company behind the SA Oscar-entry Barakat and acclaimed series like Donkerbos and Nêrens, Noord-Kaap.
