Geschichte
Of Good Report follows Parker Sithole, an introverted high school teacher with a passion for literature who is regarded as 'of good report'. He meets and falls in love with a mesmerizing young woman at a local bar, but their relationship takes a dramatic turn when she walks into his classroom the next day as one of his pupils. Despite the forbidden nature of their affair, Parker develops an obsession with her and she reciprocates until their love story reaches a tragic end. In a noir-inspired narrative reminiscent of Little Red Riding Hood told from the wolf's perspective, Parker spirals into a murderous abyss driven by his shameful lust. The film is an intense thriller that follows this deeply disturbed teacher as he struggles with the grisly murder he has committed while evading detection from a relentless local policewoman.
