'Evening Primrose' is the story of Masechaba, a young woman who achieves her childhood dream of becoming a doctor, yet soon faces the stark reality of South Africa's healthcare system. As she leaves her deeply religious mother and makes friends with the politically-minded Nyasha, Masechaba's eyes are opened to rising xenophobic tension in the shadow of the apartheid. Battling her own personal demons, she must decide if she should make a stand to help her friend, even if it comes at a high personal cost.
