A Soft Landing

Andzani is an emotionally distant accountant on a Grindr binge, with an unresolved attachment to someone from his past. For him, home has always been a site of anxiety. Andzani's community of Mbambamencisi becomes a shadow in his Cape Town life that holds him hostage to the violence he thought he could escape by leaving.
An unexpected trip to his childhood community forces him to pay attention to long-repressed memories. A powerful coming-of-age story about a boy from rural Limpopo who must find ways to manage loss and to become fully himself as a gay man, A Soft Landing explores the implications of a past not decisively dealt with.
