About Leemtes en Leegheid
Magdaleen, a lonely widow in her 70s, creates an imaginary version of her deceased husband to numb the sadness and pain. After being so overwhelmed with her memories for so long, she desperately tries to re-enter the outside world and see the sea again that she has been longing for for months now.
Directed by Jordy Sank, Leemtes en Leegheid leans on a strong ensemble — Lida Botha, Johan Botha, Ivan Abrahams — 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 2022.
