“Moffie,” a derogatory Afrikaans term for “gay,” is dismissive shorthand for everything that the young men in the harrowing film of the same name, from South African director Oliver Hermanus, don’t want to be. Set amid a group of freshly arrived white army conscripts who will be sent to fight communist guerrillas along the Angolan border in apartheid-era South Africa, it’s a riveting portrait of a particular time and place while also being a broader assault on the type of pressure-cooker masculinity where torture, cruelty, humiliation and racism are the coins of the realm.
