Adapted from André Carl van de Merwe’s novel, Moffie tells a brutal tale with moments of attractive respite. Anyone remotely acquainted with the "Undine" tale appreciates that she’s not lying to her ex. Squint and you could it's possible blunder these opening moments for a Lifetime motion picture-that is, right until the crack-up ends with Undine warning her soon-to-be-ex (Jacob Matschenz) that she’s going to have to get rid of him.
