Reabetswe Moeti-Vogt, Zoe Ramushu and Ellen Havenith Courtesy of PRPL, Totem Zea Collective South Africa’s Totem Zea and Dutch production company PRPL are teaming on “Third Wheel,” one of the big buzz titles this week at Fantasia’s Frontières Co-Production Market, combining entertainment in its propulsive psychological thriller drive plus a swingeing comment on post-colonial power dynamics in Africa.
To be directed by Zoe Ramushu, whose short “It Takes a Circus” was nominated for the 48th Student Academy Awards, the movie project is produced by her partner Reabetswe Moeti-Vogt at their South African label Totem Zea, behind Black female-fronted comedy “Real Estate Sisters.”
