LONGSTREET TRAILER MASTER_H264_Widescreen_720x405_3.mp4

Set in Cape Town, Long Street is an intimately rendered portrait of the fragile relationship between recovering drug addict Sia (Sannie Fox) and her mother Maria (Roberta Fox). The two women have long since stopped trusting each other, and their relationship has collapsed into a simmering sea of anger and disappointment. But when a Zulu singer named Andiswa (Busi Mhlongo) enters their lives, her powerful presence and musical genius brings the mother and daughter together again. Andiswa uses the healing power of her voice to allow Sia and Maria to forge their relationship anew and discover things they didnt know about each other and themselves. The result is a powerful music driven film about contemporary middle class ennui in urban South Africa. Long Street is an authentic and gently moving film that tells its story with feeling, compassion and elegance.
