Sew the Winter to my Skin

A rousing, action-adventure-epic set in early 1950’s rural South Africa, chronicling the captivating chase and suspenseful capture of the native outlaw, John Kepe. This self-proclaimed “Samson of the Boschberg” inevitably became a political threat to the very fabric of the ruling colonial society. Seen through the eyes of those who loved and hated him, Sew the Winter to my Skin dissects the psychosis and existential romantic interpretation of legend and heroism.
