Vir Altyd is a sure hit with Silverstar guests in particular, with the movie out-performing all others screened at movies@Silverstar.

Vir Altyd tells the story of childhood friends Nina (Donnalee Roberts) and Hugo (Ivan Botha) who are reunited for the first time in 10 years, the day before Nina’s wedding.
