DESCRIPTION:About the Film\nThis kooky comedy from South Africa follows Max (Mpho 
 Lovinga), a Candide-like innocent who travels from the country to 
 Johannesburg to become a doctor. Accidentally given the family’s sacred 
 goat to bring to his ne’er-do-well Uncle Norman (Jerry Mofokeng), Max 
 finds himself (and the goat) mired in his uncle’s debts to an 
 unscrupulous crime lord. And Uncle Norman discovers that Max, the most 
 gifted professional mourner in the country, could be a profitable source of 
 badly-needed cash. Filmmaker Teddy Mattera creates a rollicking mix of 
 farce and folly in this contemporary tale.\n\nIn English.\nWriters: Teddy 
 Mattera, Greg Latter. Director: Teddy Mattera. (South Africa 2004) 98 min.
