Sinopse
To the outside world, George is just an average middle-aged, middle-class, and middle-sized salesman. But to George, the outside world is out to get him, and on his 40th birthday he decides to do something about it. "George's 40th Birthday" is a dark comedy about a self-deprecating man who is so fed up with his monotonous life that he loses his grip on reality. Our story begins when, on the morning of his 40th birthday, George decides to bring a gun to work. George's birthday turns out to be no different from any other; a complete and utter disaster. Yet just when George decides to put himself out of his misery, he receives a surprise.
A newly arrived guest of a Hollywood hotel charms and amazes the regulars, and they decide to invite him to their Christmas dinner.
A man awakes to find himself trapped in a dirty, confined crawlspace. He barely has enough room to move. He also has no memory of why he’s there, or why he’s bleeding from a stomach wound. Apparently drugged, he occasionally ‘zones out’ of his surroundings as he tries to edge towards his way to freedom. But the more he explores, the more pain he has to endure, and the more frightening his predicament becomes.

"Africa Light" - as white local citizens call Namibia. The name suggests romance, the beauty of nature and promises a life without any problems in a country where the difference between rich and poor could hardly be greater. Namibia does not give that impression of it. If you look at its surface it seems like Africa in its most innocent and civilized form. It is a country that is so inviting to dream by its spectacular landscape, stunning scenery and fascinating wildlife. It has a very strong tourism structure and the government gets a lot of money with its magical attraction. But despite its grandiose splendor it is an endless gray zone as well. It oscillates between tradition and modernity, between the cattle in the country and the slums in the city. It shuttles from colonial times, land property reform to minimum wage for everyone. It fluctuates between socialism and cold calculated market economy.
