OUR RATING:
WHAT IT’S ABOUT:
A world-class psychiatrist believes that she has developed a therapeutic agent that reaches into deep traumas of the subconscious. When four strangers end up on a farm for treatment, extraordinary things happen.
WHAT WE THOUGHT:
When in the veld and you find yourself with a small cut on your finger, a spider’s web will stop the bleeding.
Or at least so it’s believed according to an age-old boereraat . These untested home remedies are as part of Afrikaans heritage as melktert recipes. Using nature’s medicinal properties and exploring herbology isn’t a foreign concept. But trust me if I tell you that there runs a thin line in the more conservative side of the culture between a soothing tea for a sore throat and a witches’ brew dabbling in the occult.

A spin-off of the Coen brothers’ Oscar-winning classic movie, Fargo has won three Golden Globes, six Emmys and a Peabody Award. Season 4 is set in Kansas City in 1950, with comedian Chris Rock starring as Loy Cannon, the head of the African-American crime family who trades sons with the head of the Italian mafia as part of a tenuous truce. “Fargo, as in past seasons, manages to be both more dramatic, and more comic, than almost any other show on TV right now,” says NPR.
