On the eve of elections in the new democratic South Africa, the whole country is restless. In the poor white neighborhood of Triomf, the Benade family is part of that white marginalized class. The father, mother, mentally challenged son and Uncle Treppie share a decaying house surrounded by promiscuity. Worried about the result of the elections, they plan to escape to the North.
