Gender, race and class collide in Flatland, the South African thriller directed by Jenna Bass. 
Natalie (Nicole Fortuin) is coerced into marrying a ruthless white cop in a tense post-apatheid South Africa. Her fiancé ends up dead and Natalie goes on the run with her old frenemy Poppie who is heavily pregnant and has her own skeletons in the closet. 
In pursuit of the two women is the seasoned detective Beauty Cuba (Faith Baloyi), a black woman battling demons from her own past. Men play the role of aiders and derailers in this thrilling chase. If you've watched Thelma &  Lousie, you'll get Dejavu from this film.
Themes of feminism, racism and class are explored in this Toronto Film Festival favorite.
