As part of the kykNET Silwerskermfees 2026, Cape Town audiences can experience a powerful collection of short documentaries at Theatre on The Bay this August. The screening features three compelling South African stories: Die gees agter die spiere, exploring the unseen mental strength behind elite athletes; Druk dit!, an intimate look into the world of competitive arm wrestling and one man’s pursuit of becoming a champion; and Pappa kitsch, an investigative journey into a mysterious artwork believed to be linked to legendary artist Vladimir Tretchikoff.
Blending sport, human resilience, and artful investigation, these documentaries offer a fascinating glimpse into extraordinary lives and hidden stories.
