Storyline
| Plot Summary |
WHILE YOU WEREN'T LOOKING is an original story set in Cape Town. The protagonists are gay and lesbian, from all walks of life, whose intertwining tales present a humorous, inventive, dramatic take on contemporary life in South Africa. It is through the eyes and experiences of a cross-section of queers--Black, white and coloured, cruisy singles, married couples with children, city and township dwellers, apartheid survivors and born-frees, professionals and skollies--that we see the South African contemporary landscape unfold. |
