WHAT:   The New York Premiere of CAPE OF GOOD HOPE.

        Award- winning South African film CAPE OF GOOD HOPE is a
        slice-of-life, multi-cultural romantic dramedy from
        writer/director and producer Mark Bamford and co-producer
        Suzanne Kay (daughter of show-biz legend Diahann Carroll).

        This beautifully told story was filmed entirely on location in
        the Cape Town coastal community of Hout Bay and centers around
        a local Animal Shelter. The six central characters are Jean
        Claude (ERIQ EBOUANEY), a refugee from war-torn Congo who
        finds himself torn between love and the promise of asylum in
        the West; Lindiwe (NTHATI MOSHESH), a single mother and
        housekeeper trying to make a life for herself and her son
        while finding a way out of the township; Sharifa (QUANITA
        ADAMS) and Habib (DAVID ISAACS), a young Muslim couple unable
        to have children of their own yet desperate to have a family;
        Morne (MORNE VISSER), a recently widowed veterinarian who
        wants to believe that true love can strike twice; and Kate
        (DEBBIE BROWN), the emotionally guarded founder of the animal
        shelter, who seems to relate better to stray dogs than to
        people.

        Filmmakers Mark Bamford and Suzanne Kay found inspiration for
        their film through their experiences working as volunteers
        with children and refugees.

        CAPE OF GOOD HOPE received an Honorary Mention for the
        People's Choice Award at Toronto and was the double winner of
        Jury Prize for Best Film and Audience Award for Best Feature
        in Austin. It also screened at Cannes as part of a special
        South African showcase.
