LIEFDE IS ROOI - directed by Lee-Ann van Rooi

Alles is nie pluis met die Witbooi-gesin in hulle viervertrekhuisie in Tafelsig, Mitchells Plain nie. Rooikappie woon nou saam met haar broer en stiefsuster op die Kaapse Vlakte. Dis hier waar James vir sy twee susters, Prudence en Mara, sorg. Mara is boonop bipoler en sy en James waak oor `n groot geheim.
