Mayfair

If South Africa is a nation of strangers, then Johannesburg is it's Capital. There aren't really that many movies depicting this side of Joburg's old Indian community or its new Somali community. It's not a faithful depiction, but it works as a pop culture depiction.

The characters being portrayed and the setting are also uniquely Johannesburg, if not always 100% authentic. Performances were committed, locations are as real as they get, the communities and the backstories compelling. For all it's shortcomings, a lot of thought has gone in to this movie and it keeps the movie interesting if not cliché, and the story ticking over.

Old school crime drama for an old school immigrant city. For a part of Johannesburg that may not exist in twenty years.
