The Fix (2024)
Set in a dystopian future Cape Town with toxic air, The Fix follows a model (Grace van Dien, aka Chrissy Cunningham in Stranger Things S4) who takes a new designer drug at a party and suffers a shocking transformation. Pursued by forces with competing interests in the drug’s effects, she discovers that her mutations could save the human race.
The Fix was the opening night film at MIPAfrica and the closing night film at Chattanooga, where it won the Dangerous Visions Awards.
The Fix also stars Daniel Sharman (Fear The Walking Dead), Clancy Brown (John Wick 4, The Penguin), and Nicole Fortuin from Heart of the Hunter, the first African film to top the global English-language films charts on Netflix.
The Fix is written and directed by Kelsey Egan, who made her feature film debut with the Showmax Original Glasshouse, which earned rave reviews globally after its debut at Fantasia; went on to screen on the likes of Apple TV, Prime Video, and Tubi internationally; and was the most awarded film at the 2022 South African Film and Television Awards (SAFTAs).
Also look out for the likes of Africa Movie Academy Awards and SAFTA nominee Keenan Arrison (Shirley Adams), Fleur du Cap winner Tafara Nyatsanza (Beast, Blood & Water), Young Artist Award winner Caleb Payne (The Kissing Booth, Warrior), Tina Redman (Ludik, Savage Beauty) and Robyn Rossouw (Swartwater).
Gravitas Ventures has acquired US, Canada and select international territories on The Fix, for a 22 November 2024 release.
