Synopsis:: Show moreShow less
The world of lonely, middle-age policewoman Beauty Cuba (Faith Baloyi) changes forever when she receives a call for help from Billy (Brendon Daniels), the lost love of her life who has recently been re-arrested for murder. Beauty returns to her home town of Beaufort West, deep in the heart of the surreal landscape of the Karoo semi-desert and quickly learns that this case is not as simple as she thought. The real culprit of this accidental murder is a painfully shy young woman named Natalie (Nicole Fortuin) who flees her small, rural town on horseback and teams up with her now pregnant childhood friend Poppie (Izel Bezuidenhout) to outrun the law.
'Flatland' is a journey of self-discovery for these three different but equally desperate women, painting a vivid and unique portrait of femininity against a hostile frontier-land and questions what it means to be a women in contemporary South Africa and the world at large.
