Set during Apartheid in Namibia, 'Dead River' follows the unlikely friendship of a farm worker's son and the farmer's daughter.
David and Lisa meet through the melodies she plays on her flute and he whistles. Lisa's racist father outlaws the friendship and sends his daughter to the hostel.

Before the end of Apartheid, Lisa returns to the farm as a young woman and meets David again. Events take a turn for the worse and Lisa sees no other option than to flee the country.

Many years later Lisa returns. She is here to face her past and to visit the graves at Dead River.

Mirage

A short film about the origin and evolution of Skeleton Bay.



Since it was unveiled in 2008, the wave at Skeleton Bay has become part of every surfer's lexicon, a synonym for never-ending sand bottomed tubes. But unlike Pipeline, G-Land, or [insert your preferred iconic world class wave here], the two-kilometre-long left on the edge of the Namib Desert is in a constant state of flux. If satellite imagery is anything to go by, the wave we know today didn’t even exist 30 years ago.

Mirage is a 15-minute documentary that traces the genesis of the Namibian sandspit and how it became one of the most sought after waves on the planet, as told by pioneering locals and some of the best tube riders in the world.

But before you put it on the top of your post-pandemic bucket list, perhaps take heed of Koa Smith’s veiled advice from the film: “People think oh, easy, Skeleton Bay. I’m going to go get the barrel of my life. But then they show up here and realise it’s more like Teahupoo on sand.”
