Gerhard Steenberg is a murderer on parole. He travels to Duiwelsvallei, a place where even the devil must tread lightly. He becomes entangled in the peculiar lives of the Duiwelsvallei's people. Initially, things go well, but then murder, jealousy, blood feuds, and betrayal rear their heads. Gerhard becomes ensnared in a love triangle. Not even his girlfriend's suicide can drive the unwanted stranger out of the valley. Only blood, his own, that of his ex-wife, and his best friend Bergsma's, will allow him to leave Duiwelsvallei.
Directed by Jans Rautenbach, Ongewenste Vreemdeling leans on a strong ensemble — Marius Weyers, Sandra Kotze, Barry Trengove — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 1974.
