Sierra, an eccentric young black visual artist in Johannesburg discovers she's pregnant for her boyfriend, who also happens to be her manager. Tiro, the boyfriend, presents Sierra with a hard choice: abort the pregnancy or lose him forever. Sierra chooses Tiro over the growing child within her. She consumes a strange concoction, given to her by Tiro, designed to abort the baby but instead it bestows her with the inexplicable ability to excrete gold coins. What follows is an uproarious and darkly comedic chain of events as Skorra, an Afrikaner Pawn shop owner and his henchmen invade Sierra's home with the hope of extracting the gold coins from her. Her loft, once a sanctuary of artistic expression, morphs into an unexpected battleground of wits and resolve, as everyone fights for what they want and the pursuit of riches, ultimately spirals into a deadly showdown. Sierra’s Gold is a riveting exploration of love, desperation, and the unimaginable consequences of choices. This darkly comedic journey delves into themes of self-discovery and the shocking revelation that one's true worth is already within.
