Umshini Wam (2011)

Yo-Landi and Ninja of South African rap formation Die Antwoord star in this mini movie about two gangsters in wheelchairs that want to be taken seriously. They want to reach this goal by getting better wheelchairs.

The title of the movie is the title of the song that the military wing of the AMC sang when there was still apartheid in South Africa and was later used by Jacob Zuma.

This mini movie can be described as bizarre. Yo-Landi and Ninja are wearing strange suits making them look like weird Pokemon, smoke extremely large blunts and do some rapping. It´s something which fits the group though. The movie has a lot of humor and is very well edited, making it short and entertaining. Supported by Hi-Tek beats it is a nice short diversion which is worth watching if you are a fan of the group.

Score: 8
