Synopsis
For Ella, the death of her alcoholic father leaves her with nothing but debt and the bitter memory of a complicated past. Abandoned by her mother at a young age, she has sacrificed her life, opportunities, and love to care for a man she resents, but is now left adrift in the world after his passing. The re-emergence of her nomadic godfather at her father’s cremation gives Ella the opportunity to discover a better future for herself in Johannesburg.
