In this exclusive interview, I talk to two amazing young actors from South Africa, Ruan Wessels and Simone Neethling. They are the stars of the new film The Forest, a post-apocalyptic adventure that blends romance, action, sci-fi, and horror. The Twin Hearts production, written, co-produced, and edited by WorldFilmGeek Hall of Famer Reine Swart, is now available on rent/buy on Amazon Prime from Janson Media.

“Baie Dankie” (Thank You So Much in Afrikaans) goes out to Ruan Wessels, Simone Neethling, and Reine Swart for making this interview possible.

The theme music used in the beginning is the film’s beautiful theme song, “Soen My Sag” (“Kiss Me Softly”), written by Katrine Labuschagne and performed by Liesl Ahlers. You can see the music video below:
