After engaging in an illicit affair with one of his pupils, English teacher Parker Sithole spirals into an abyss of obsession that eventually turns to murder. A cinephile's passionate homage to classic film noir, Of Good Report is an evocative yet humorous story about a demented teacher's attempt to get away with the murder of a teenage beauty queen. The film is a serial killer origins story about how a social misfit turns into an inadequate man hell bent on satisfying his shameful lust. It is Little Red Riding Hood, told from the wolf's perspective.
The Old German Club, situated in the heart of Cape Town, will set the scene for two consecutive nights of sensory enchantment in an old-world theatre rich and resplendent in the glamour of a bygone cinematic age. Expect the customarily sumptuous Short & Sweet experience, comprising three bars, comprehensive seating, a high-definition projector, craft beer, popcorn and a gourmet coffee stand. Engage in an electric social atmosphere in which the interested and the interesting congregate to network, share ideas and celebrate cinema.
