Plot
Londoner Quinn, a bold young woman of mixed heritage, is at a crossroads after her mother’s sudden death. Hoping to reconnect with her estranged South African father, she sets off on an impulsive journey to Cape Town—but nothing goes as planned. When a chance encounter with the enigmatic Harley leads to an offer of help, the pair are swept into a wild ride through the Western Cape’s electric nightlife, underbelly, and remote backwaters. As they face external dangers, deep-seated prejudice, and personal reckoning, Quinn and Harley form a powerful bond, discovering that the answers they sought may lie within. A story of resilience, identity, and the unexpected roads that lead us home.
