This film is about more than just life and death, it tells the story of five women – Lana (Donnalee Roberts), Vivian (Simoné Nortmann), Adrie (Chanelle de Jager), Diona (Ilse Klink) and Nixie (Carla Klassen) – who are being tossed about by life’s rough waters and drowning in their own lives. Coincidence takes them on an adventure on the Orange River. Here the unthinkable happens when their boat capsizes, the river guide goes missing and they find themselves in a battle for survival in the wilderness.The journey irrevocably changes their lives as they struggle through the pain and fear together. Themes which the film explore include self-discovery, forgiveness, acceptance and healing.

Armand Aucamp, famous for his roles in Ballade vir ’n Enkeling, Die Boekklub 1 and 2 and Knapsekêrels stars as the river guide, Guy. He is joined by a number of other familiar faces.

We look forward to sharing this epic and emotional journey on the Orange River with more people. We would like to thank all those who have already supported Stroomop on the big screen and for all the wonderful feedback. We tell stories and make films for the people, so there is nothing more special than receiving someone’s sincere and heartfelt feedback. Relax, sit back and enjoy!”  – Ivan Botha and Donnalee Roberts.
