“The Honeymoon” follows three women: Kat, Nok and Lu as they travel to Zanzibar and cause mischief across the archipelago.
This girls’ trip came to fruition after Kat’s fiancé dumped her the night before their wedding, and the friends wanted to take advantage of the honeymoon reservations. All the women are dealing with their own problems, and the viewers watch as their friendships and emotions unfold over the course of the trip.
Overall, the film highlights the importance of having a good group of friends to support and challenge you during trying times, and that it never hurts to laugh at your own mistakes.
The film was directed by Bianca Isaac and is filled with vibrant colors and rhythmic afro beats. It features a diverse cast of characters.
Actress Tumi Morake who plays Nok takes over almost every scene she’s in and gives a standout performance. She plays a struggling social media influencer who is always going on Instagram Live, filling in her followers on her adventures.
“The Honeymoon,” which premiered at the New African Film Festival and is being released on Friday, is a fun film. Hopefully, it has a chance to be shown at more theaters and general audiences get a chance to see it.
