Die Stropers
South Africa, Free State region, isolated stronghold to the Afrikaans white ethnic minority culture.

One day his mother, fiercely religious, brings home Pieter, a hardened street orphan she wants to save, and asks Janno to make this stranger into his brother. The two boys start a fight for power, heritage and parental love.

This was kind of a waste of time and the movie was too long for the story it told. It is about an ultra-religious farming family whose son is probably secretly gay, although never stated as such, it is hinted at. Somehow (never clearly explained) they take in a troubled teen who also works the streets for gay clients. The movie really goes nowhere. The main star is the son and near the end of the movie he just runs…
