Documentary on Jan Spies and Tolla van der Merwe
After a dispute with a local dentist, a minister is thrown out of his church, and finds himself an unemployed White Afrikaner Male. Desperate for work, he accepts a job as a manager in a men's club, which allows gambling, stripping and drinking - by the customers. In an attempt to avoid his old congregation recognising him, he dons a costume straight out of the Bible. To make matters worse, the club is run by his cousin, who is also a gangster.

When Hanky Pranky (alias Schucks), star of a candid camera TV show, loses his job to affirmative action, he applies for a job at a stress academy. It´s not long before Schucks discovers his new boss, Jack Paddaman, is as crooked as they come, but it´s too late: the employment contract is signed and sealed.A year passes, and Schucks is no better off. However, his candid camera videos, which poke fun at all sectors of post-1994 South Africa, prove a big hit with stressed-out government ministers. When the president asks Paddaman to make a movie to benefit street children, Schucks and his pals do all the hard work while Paddaman plans how he can get hold of the profits from the video sales. Add a scatterbrained secretary, a lovelorn traffic cop and a cunning street child and you have a roll-in-the aisles comedy with a distinctly South African flavour.
Uncle Bok
Шалости друзей — мальчишек, белого африканера и черного зулу — сделали бы честь даже легендарному Кевину из комедии «Один дома». Жизнь надолго разлучает их, но встретившись через 25 лет, они вспоминают детство — похищают полмиллиона долларов и, преобразившись в гримерной телевидения белый в черного, а черный в белого, скрываются от преследователей.
Himself
Classic candid camera comedy, with South Africa's late storyteller and comedian, Tolla van der Merwe
