This month we highlight Beyond The River, a movie brought to the big screen by Quizzical Pictures and Heartlines — an NGO established by one of our Fellows, Garth Japhet (Class X, XSeed). Heartlines uses a values-based lens through film and print stories, to tackle society’s biggest issues.
The upcoming movie is inspired by a true story of Piers Cruickshanks and Siseko Ntondini, who are today some of South Africa’s top paddlers. The film tells a story of two men from vastly different walks of life. The two come together in a common purpose to win gold at the most arduous canoe marathon.
But a few challenges stand on their way. One has a marriage on the verge of collapse, and the other is running away from the law. Furthermore, they have never paddled together as a team.
This riveting film will take you on a nail-biting adventure through the hills and valleys of their lives.
Beyond the River releases in cinemas on the 28 April 2017. You can watch the full movie early at an exclusive screening before it goes on circuit. To make a block booking for your office, school, sports club or faith group follow the link below:
