Tess

Tess is based on a novel by Tracey Farren called Whiplash. It tells the harrowing story of sassy twenty-year-old prostitute who sells her body on Cape Town's streets. She survives by popping painkillers by the bunch and through her wry humour. But her life turns upside down when she falls pregnant. Though Tess tries to run, her past torments her. She begins to question her own sanity. Tess fights back, fighting her demons, searching for the truth. (Cinemax)
