A reimagining of the 1979 seminal “melt movie” classic, Street Trash follows a group of homeless misfits as they navigate the strange and hostile streets of Cape Town, South Africa. When newcomer to the streets, Alex, joins the group; leader Ronald takes her under his wing to teach her all he knows about surviving the streets. With the help of her new homeless comrades; Chef, 2-Bit, Pap and Wors, Alex soon learns that life on the streets comes with a whole new set of problems. The local crime boss, known as the Rat King, is after her and the sinister Mayor Mostert is planning to eliminate all homeless people using the experimental chemical “V” – a substance that melts through flesh and turns human bone to goo. When Ronald and the gang are rounded up and imprisoned during Mayor Mostert’s final phase of extermination, Alex must make an unlikely ally of the Rat King to free her friends and save the streets. In a daring rescue, Alex - and the rest of the city’s surviving homeless population - escape and take to the streets to turn their oppressors’ weapon against them.
