More about the movie 

Jagveld boasts a top notch cast - featuring Leandie Du Randt, Neels van Jaarsveld (SAFTA nominee), Tim Theron, Tertius Meintjes and other popular local acting talent. 

The story in Jagveld kicks off with Emma le Roux (Leandie du Randt), who is on her way home to the family farm in the Great Karoo; pretty, soft little Emma, the pacifist primary school teacher. She has made the trip 'n thousand times without incident, but not today.

Today she will cross paths with Bosman, Baz, Jay, Boela, AJ and Piet. Bosman (Neels van Jaarsveld) is the mastermind of the drug syndicate; a psychopath, he is savage and violent. Baz (Tim Theron) and Jay (Bouwer Bosch) are his henchmen - murderers, monsters. AJ (Danie Putter) and Boela (Edwin van der Walt), spoiled brats looking for validation, are on board to make a quick buck in the criminal underworld. And then there's Piet (Luan Jacobs), the weakling, who is willing to do just about anything for his cousin Bosman.

Emma witnesses them committing a murder; and they see her seeing them. Now they're hunting her down like an animal. But they don’t know who this girl is that they are hunting and nothing is going according to plan; everything is falling apart, and fast. At first they were driven by hate and revenge. Suddenly, it's survival…
