BLACK MARKET BRAWL - An Action Short Film

Turbo Action Presents:

BLACK MARKET BRAWL

A Treasure-Hunting Mercenary and a Black Market Salesman attempt to sell an ancient artefact: A ring that gives it's barer “god-like” powers. Shit hits the fan when the ring is revealed to be missing right as the deal is made.

Black Market Brawl was shot in the midst of the South African, COVID 19 lockdown. It became a love letter to the local film industry and a testament to our resilience and determination as professional storytellers. Soo many incredible filmmakers and suppliers poured their heart into bringing this film to life. We can’t wait to share the final result!
