‘Second Time Around’ celebrates Cape Town by taking a
journey through the musical and local flavours. Yussie aka Yusuf Samuels
aka Boeta ‘Yu’ (Loukmaan Adams) and Roddi aka Roderick Samuels (Keenan
Arrison) are in charge of the lost baggage at Cape Town International
Airport. Yussie has been there for years and is earnestly committed to his
job, while Roddi, who only recently became permanent, has dreams of making
his fifteen seconds of fame a reality at the World Cup Opening Ceremony.
However, he needs to convince the very reluctant “star”
Yussie to put on his dancing shoes of yester year and drag him off to an
audition. In the mean time, their demanding boss, Mr. D (Jody Abrahams)
has his own hidden agendas. Is he just an innocent bystander or is there a
Dark secret?

But something disastrous happened on-route to F.A.M.E (World
Cup fame that is) and we are about to find out…
