Namibia’s first queer movie tells the story of the openly gay and middle-class insurance broker George and the closeted working-class kapana (grilled meat) seller Simeon. The ongoing criminalization of male same-sex relationships in the country and the stigma around it challenges their affection to each other. While Simeon struggles with societal expectations he finds out that also George keeps a secret.
