TOMATOMETER
Brummer, who bears a passing resemblance to a young Peter O’Toole, is attractive and enigmatic as a young man finding himself in less-than-encouraging circumstances.
New York Times
There's no shortage of movies about young men and war. But few in recent memory are as brutal, or as beautiful, as MOFFIE...
Entertainment Weekly
[A] powerful drama set in 1981 South Africa....The film feels intensely personal in its intimate observation of a closeted gay military conscript, played with mesmerizing internalized anxiety by Kai Luke Brummer.
Hollywood Reporter
[A] potent cocktail of violence and repression.
A.V. Club
[A] piercing, perfectly formed new film from Oliver Hermanus...
Variety
Product Description:
In 1980s South Africa, it is compulsory for white males aged sixteen and above to serve in the military for two years. Nicholas (Kai Luke Brummer) signs up in 1981, a time of political turmoil in the country: the white minority is locked in a conflict at the Angolan border, and the threats of communism and "the black danger" are at its most potent. He, however, has more important things to worry about. The military is not a place for someone like him, and it doesn't help that he starts to forge a mutual understanding with a fellow recruit while he is inside. Directed by Oliver Hermanus.
