Cape Town – Acclaimed filmmaker and YouTube creator Dan Mace is no stranger to bold storytelling – but his latest film might be his most dangerous yet.
The hard-hitting documentary dives into the heart of Cape Town’s deadly taxi wars, bringing viewers behind the veil of South Africa’s most volatile transport system.
From the corridors of law enforcement to the frontlines of taxi turf battles, Mace weaves a tension-filled narrative that confronts both the official system – The City of Cape Town – and the perceived lawless – the taxi industry itself.
“This isn’t just a story – it’s a war zone with routes, rifles, and rivalries. We filmed in places most wouldn’t dare go,” says Mace, founder of JOE Films, whose fearless lens turns chaos into cinematic urgency.
With high-stakes access, unflinching interviews, and gritty vérité footage, the film delivers investigative filmmaking at its finest – leaving audiences with racing pulses and serious questions about the power dynamics on South Africa’s roads.
Viewer discretion advised. This is not for the faint-hearted.
