Som van Twee

Henk is an experienced psychologist, but after the loss of his wife, Nicolene, he is powerless to help himself. He also can’t get through to his son, Renier, who hides his pain behind anger and denial. During Nicolene’s funeral, Henk confesses that he had once leaked the matric math exam paper to the entire town of Barberton. An investigation follows, and the whole class of 1990 must either retake the exam or lose their matric certificate. Henk asks Renier to tutor him, but it’s a struggle. His old classmates are furious about the trouble he has caused. Things spiral out of control, forcing Henk to make an impossible choice.

Directed by Simoné Pretorius, Som van Twee leans on a strong ensemble — Louw Venter, James Borthwick, Adriaan Havenga — 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 comedy titles of 2025.
