Number Please? The Movie
1981, Afrikaans. Directed by Henk Hugo.
Excuse me! (Hoesê!)
"Hoesê!" This is a film based on the South African sitcom by the same name; such name referring to the manual telephone system operated by one of the cast. In addition to the usual (mostly mature) cast, pretty girl Zoli Marki muddles things up. Add to this a mix-up with a heyday homelands casino for further comedy and confusion.
