This is a portrait of a group of working men in post-apartheid South Africa. It shows men who take great pride in putting on flashy suit to stand out as inspiration for others. The film tells their story and why the “dressing up” is not just something external and temporary, but an integrated part of their internal spiritual and mental life, their past, present and future. | Rønde, Jeppe Jeppe Rønde (born 1973)
Jeppe holds a BA degree in Film Science and Art History from The University of Copenhagen. He made his first film in 2001. For his feature-length debut Jerusalem, My Love he has won 6 international prizes around the world.
