Swirl (2021)
With her inner GPS firmly set on kroes-control, hairdresser Elaine Williams has to navigate tricky and treacherous terrain in the rocky, wild landscape of hair on the Cape Flats. While this path holds the promise of being straight, her journey has many kinks, bends, waves and u-turns, until a new choice presents itself, and Elaine must decide whether she has what it takes to recalculate and forge a new path.
Produced by Nagvlug Films (who are currently filming the upcoming Showmax Original series Skemerdans), Swirl is directed by SAFTA-winner Quanita Adams (Arendsvlei) and stars Chanelle Davids, Vinette Ebrahim and Shaleen Surtie-Richards.
