The scenario: On Christmas Day 1997, Hantjie Jansen receives thrilling news: his Uncle Jakwes, the longtime drum major of the Old Righteous Blues Christmas Choir, is retiring. Since childhood, Hantjie has dreamed of taking his place, but the elderly choir leaders refuse to consider him. 20 years earlier, Hantjie’s father made a choice that split the beloved choir in two, sparking bitter rivalry and violence between the factions. Now, in the wake of South Africa’s first democratic elections, a fragile unity emerges. For Hantjie, this could be his chance to heal old wounds and fulfil his dream, but the battle ahead is titanic. More than just a fight for the drum major’s sash, it’s a Romeo and Juliet tale, seasoned with love, desire, ambition and the terror of an ancient feud. It stars Ayden Croy as Hantjie, Ivan Abrahams as Oom Sampie, Joshwin Dyson as Elvin, Stefan Erasmus as Kristof, and Talia Davis as Elzette. The trailer:
