Humorless handling of a ridiculous situation: a black-to-the-naked-eye biological daughter of white parents in segregated South Africa — scientifically explained under the heading of polygenic inheritance — and a consequent illicit romance with a young black man. "Is this a joke?" seems a reasonable question, spoken aloud. But the hand only gets heavier and heavier. With Sophie Okonedo, Sam Neill, Alice Krige, and Tony Kgoroge; directed by Anthony Fabian. (2008) — Duncan Shepherd
Rated PG-13 | 1.0 hour, 47 minutes
