The jury from the British Film Institute commented about this film that: “Among a strong field of debut features, we found ourselves enamoured by the urgency, vitality and originality of The Wound. The director John Trengove and the excellent cast created a dynamic and inimitable coming-of-age story that takes a heart-breaking look at masculinity and sexuality.”

Inxeba is the story of a man asked to be a caregiver of his best friend’s son after he gets a circumcision. He also has a secret affair with a married man. To his surprise, he finds out that his best friend’s son is also gay. This boy is from a new generation and his open-mindedness strongly affects the man’s mental state, who is still bothered by his own sexuality and affair. These three men will find themselves on the edge of danger.
