Low Rider

Synopsis

Quinn, a sexually confident young woman of mixed-race ancestry, struggles to find her footing in London after her mother’s death. On impulse, she decides to travel to South Africa in search of her estranged father, but when she fails to find him, her journey begins to reflect the reckless patterns of her London life. An unexpected turn leads to a chance encounter with charismatic South African, Harley. Offering her a ride into the outback, Harley pulls Quinn into an adventure that sweeps them from Cape Town’s electric nightlife to the vast, untamed rural heartlands, to confront both external dangers and the deep-seated prejudices of the locals. As they navigate the twists and tensions of the journey, Quinn and Harley form an unbreakable bond, realising that the answers they were searching for had been within them all along. A tale of self-discovery, resilience, and the unexpected roads that lead us home.
