Desire for wonder – “Wonderlus” is a truly realistic romance from South Africa by Johan Cronje

Johan Cronje’s “Wonderlus” is a realistic, smart romantic film from South Africa that makes us question our opinions about love, marriage, happily-ever-after endings. A wedding goes awry and the morning after, friends and foes need to piece together the puzzle of the night before. In search of answers, a groom needs to pursue the love of his life, a bride has to untangle herself from the past and a waitress tries to escape the present.
