AI-synthesized · Bias removed · Facts only

South African and Dutch production companies are collaborating on a psychological thriller, “Third Wheel,” which is being presented at Fantasia’s Frontières Co-Production Market. The film aims to combine entertainment with commentary on post-colonial power dynamics in Africa.

The project teams South Africa’s Totem Zea with Dutch company PRPL. "Third Wheel" is described as one of the major buzz titles at this week's Fantasia’s Frontières Co-Production Market, according to Variety. The film will be directed by Zoe Ramushu.
