Halfpad Hol

Halfpad Hol tells the story of four characters finding their way in a world free of the forced national religion during apartheid, stripped of the certainties of their youth. The two male characters are both trapped; Coenraad underground in a mine, and his friend, Henk, mentally. Together with Tracy and Benita their beliefs are put to the test regarding ethics in marriage, relationships and business. They are uncertain about raising children, relationships with elderly parents and their attitude towards traditional institutions. They are still haunted by traumas from their autocratic past. Halfpad Hol looks at the effect of the aftermath of national religion on the psyche of the individual.
