In her smart, brash, punkishly DIY sophomore feature, director Jenna Bass uses the “body swap” cinematic formula to explore complicated issues of race and gender in the supposed “rainbow nation” of post-apartheid South Africa. Shot entirely on an iPhone, it’s the story of four friends on a camping trip who awake to discover they’ve all scrambled identities—a situation that leads to both personal chaos and political insight.

Coffee was served with much splendor at the harems of the Ottoman palace and mansions. First, sweets (usually jam) was served on silverware, followed by coffee serving. The coffee jug would be placed in a sitil (brazier), which had three chains on its sides for carrying, had cinders in the middle, and was made of tombac, silver or brass. The sitil had a satin or silk cover embroidered with silver thread, tinsel, sequin or even pearls and diamonds.
Having penetrated the Balkans in the fourteenth century, conquered Constantinople in the fifteenth, and reached the gates of Vienna in the sixteenth, the Ottoman Empire long struck fear into European hearts.
