Set in South Africa's rural Nice-Karoo area within the Fifties, this epic existential-adventure movie chronicles the exploits of the outlaw John Kepe and the assorted people his escapades affected. This Robin-Hoodesque determine would steal primarily livestock from the white settler farmers, terrorizing them for over a decade. Led by the hardliner Common Botha, a mammoth manhunt ensues within the very mountain the place Kepe was rumored to occupy a Noah's Ark like cave. This spectacle ingratiated Kepe within the hearts of the marginalized indigenous-population, who flip Kepe's miscreant deeds into the stuff of legend, making him a risk to the very cloth of the colonial society. Sew the Winter to my Pores and skin is an exciting, operatic experience into the center of Pre-Apartheid South Africa and is a visceral exploration of the results of the colonial displacement that sewed the seeds for one of the viciously racist, political regimes in historical past.
