Appearing on the Durban International Film
Festival will be Of Good Report directed
by Jahmil XT Qubeka.
Of
Good Report tells the sombre tale of a small-town
high-school teacher with a penchant for young girls. This third feature from
Qubeka is a hypnotically engaging journey into the soul of a mentally-troubled
man. Parker Sithole’s troubles start when he meets the stunning Nolitha Ngubane
at the local tavern. An illicit affair follows their mutual attraction. There’s
just one problem: the beauty queen is one of Parker’s pupils in his English
class and just 16 years old.
Six months later, he moves on to another
job. An intriguing and passionate South African homage to classic film noir. Filmmakers
in attendance
