1980s South African action comedy shot mostly in Afrikaans, one of South Africa's 11 indigenous languages.

The movie revolves around the young rebel's anti-establishment antics in frustrating his superiors, trying to avoid military service with his new-found comrades-at-arms, and charming an inquisitive spiky-haired reporter (Janie du Plessis).
