The Confession

Anna Schippers, descendant of Southern Africa's rural San

people, receives a mysterious letter which prompts her first ever

visit to Hout Bay, Cape Town in search of her missing sister who

fled there three years earlier with a dream to run a hair salon.

When Anna is told that her sister in fact worked as a township

bar girl under the destructive influence of Xhosa tsotsi Zuko,

she suspects he might be responsible for her disappearance.

During a steaming hot summer in the pulsating township

of Imizamu Yethu, Zuko and Anna, opposites in many ways,

discover they have one terrible secret in common.
