SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER Provided the club venue for Honey 3, A 2016 Dance Film. The film follows the story of A college student who drops out to use her talents as a dancer in the community. She rents a failing theatre to put on a hip-hop production of “Romeo and Juliet,” but arguments between the cast members threaten to ruin the entire project.

Saturday night fever is a fantastic film location. Apart from the great aesthetics of the club, which can be seen extensively in the movie, it also has a lot of space within the building and is situated out of the CBD which means that it’s a lot easier logistically to shoot at.

POLITICAL DRAMA SHOOTS EXTENSIVELY AT OUR MIDNIGHT IN THE GARDEN – NAVARRE FARM

Last but definitely not least was the 2016 American drama film, The Last Face. Directed by Sean Penn and starring Charlize Theron, Javier Bardem, Adèle Exarchopoulos, and Jean Reno. Many scenes were shot on our beautiful sprawling farm MIDNIGHT IN THE GARDEN, NAVARRE. The farm situated in Somerset West became the home of one of the lead characters and many scenes were shot in and around the farm and the dam areas as well as interiors of the farm house.

Because of the sheer magnitude of the project new roads had to be created so that unit could move seamlessly between basecamp and location without disturbing tricky neighbors and not impacting on normal farm activity. This was a wonderful project to have been part of and one in which we were really hands on in the planning and logistics of the farm and surrounding farms.
