Very disturbing and uncomfortable South African film about a closeted gay family man and his obsession with a young man.

Anyone seen it?

Very slow-burning with long lingering shots that create an odd tension that just bubbles and bubbles until the frustration releases.

    I was drawn in by the slow and deliberate pace which made the final scenes all the more,shocking in the speed with which it happened.
    Enjoyed is the wrong word, but it was a very good and thought provoking film.
