Low Rider
Synopsis
Quinn, a sexually confident young woman of mixed-race ancestry, struggles to find her footing in London after her mother’s death. On impulse, she decides to travel to South Africa in search of her estranged father after uncovering an old picture book they once created together.
When Quinn fails to find her father at his last known address, her journey begins to reflect the reckless patterns of her London life. But an unexpected turn leads her to a chance encounter with the charismatic South African, Harley. Offering her a ride into the outback, Harley pulls Quinn into an adventure that sweeps them from Cape Town’s electric nightlife to the vast, untamed rural heartlands, where they confront both external dangers and the deep-seated prejudices of the locals.
As they navigate the twists and tensions of their journey, Quinn and
Harley form an unbreakable bond. In the end, they realise that the answers they were searching for had been within them all along.
A tale of self-discovery, resilience, and the unexpected roads that lead us home.
