Review of Ongeriewe

Ongeriewe (2006)
7/10
Good Short...
12 December 2006
I've seen this short, because i studied with these guys. This is a very good short film that has a lot of heart, but misses slightly in some of the cinematic moments. The story is very interesting and deals with a subject that is very important and controversial in Cape Town right now. The scriptwriting is great, the directing has some nice moments, but the cinematographer is just a little too much at times and i think takes the viewer out of the film. The setting is beautiful, but the film runs a little long and you become tired of it. If the film had been tighter i think it would have been brilliant! I applaud them on getting into Cannes and showing their short around the world. South Africa needs to get it's short films out there. Well done guys!
