Trailer for The Shore Break.
Two cousins, one proposed mining project on tribal land and a battle of epic proportions. In Amadiba, on South Africa’s stunning Wild Coast, the Pondo people have tended their traditional way of life for centuries. Nonhle, a young local eco-tour guide, is a staunch supporter of her people and the endangered environment on which their livelihood and culture depend. Her cousin Madiba, a local entrepreneur and self-proclaimed modernizer, is fully supportive of a titanium mining proposal and the government’s controversial plan to build a highway across their tribal ground. Using every backhanded method imaginable, including the ousting of the Pondo Royal Family, Madiba scurrilously courts private capital and questionable government officials. Nonhle—the clear David in this Goliath-sized fight—rallies inspiring support with little more than dogged determination. Featuring arresting cinematography, beautiful sand animation and original music from sensational Ntombethongo, The Shore Break delivers both a visually and emotionally riveting fight to the finish.
