The weather forecast for this weekend in Cape Town is pretty dire.
Apart from Saturday, when there should still be cloud cover, it’s going to be a wet one.
I can’t say that upsets me too much.
Gas heater, blanket, book, telly, sorted.
If you’re looking for a good doccie to watch this weekend, I would recommend Misha and The Wolves, which is now airing on Netflix.
It’s one of those doccies where you less you know going in the better, but this description via City AM offers no spoilers:
It’s the 90’s, and an American publisher Jane Daniel believes she struck gold when she comes across the story of Misha Defonseca, a young Jewish girl who survived The Holocaust and wandered Europe looking for her deported parents, being taken in by a pack of wolves who cared for her.
The story is turned into a memoir, and Daniel has big dreams of success thanks to interest from movie studios and Oprah Winfrey.
Right, that’s quite enough.
Time for the trailer:
You probably have a sense of where this is going, but it’s a really, really interesting watch.
As per usual, I will also recommend The White Lotus, and for sports fans, Untold.
