I Am All Girls 2021

Inspired by actual events, the gripping tale centers on Gert de Jager, a South African criminal who found himself behind bars in 1994. He faced severe charges for the abduction of six innocent girls, none of whom were ever located. During a recorded confession, Gert admitted to abducting these children under the directives of a National Party Cabinet Minister. Disturbingly, he transported the young victims to various Middle Eastern countries, including Iran, in exchange for oil. Tragically, this crucial tape never saw the light of day under the Apartheid Government, and Gert de Jager met a grim fate shortly after his confession.

Fast forward to present-day Johannesburg, South Africa, where the Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation (DPCI) officer, Jodie Snyman, is tirelessly conducting human trafficking raids. Unfortunately, her efforts yield scant results, and her operation hangs by a thread due to dwindling resources. Just as things seem to reach a breaking point, a shocking discovery is made: a murdered man with faint initials etched into his skin.

This harrowing investigation uncovers that the deceased is Oupa Carel Duvenhage, a cabinet minister also registered on the National Register for sex offenders. As Jodie delves deeper, she finds hidden tapes in Oupa’s garage, leading her to conclude he was a predator who abused his own granddaughter. The initials carved on his body, T.S.C, are linked to Tarrynlee Shaw Carter, one of the six missing girls who fell victim to Gert de Jager. There are unsettling hints that Oupa may in fact be the same cabinet minister that Gert testified against.

As the plot thickens, the situation escalates with more bodies emerging, all sharing the same mysterious initials. Jodie speculates that a vigilante is on the loose, enacting revenge for the lost girls. With the aid of the mysterious hooded killer, she unravels a sprawling syndicate dedicated to sex trafficking, ultimately cleaning the streets through grim, unlawful methods.

However, Jodie begins to harbor suspicions about her colleague, Ntombizonke Bapai, suspecting her of possibly being the vigilante killer. Despite her reluctance to accuse Ntombizonke due to a burgeoning romantic connection, she covertly investigates her apartment and stumbles upon Gert de Jager’s recorded confession, mysteriously left for her by Ntombizonke.

Following the revelations in the tape, Jodie discovers a farm located in Brakpan, identified as the operation’s headquarters run by FJ Nolte, the cabinet minister referenced by Gert. To her horror, it is revealed that FJ Nolte had smuggled only five of the six abducted girls, keeping Ntombizonke as a child and subjecting her to continuous abuse.

In a shocking turn, Jodie realizes that Brakpan includes an airstrip where girls are discreetly sold off to buyers, circumventing regular transport protocols. Determined, she heads to Brakpan and uncovers the lifeless bodies of the two Khan brothers, who had previously been apprehended by Jodie for smuggling but were later released.

As events intensify, Jodie witnesses an incoming plane, deducing that FJ Nolte is facilitating a new transaction involving six young girls for an Iranian Sheikh arriving on his private aircraft. Despite her best efforts to thwart the transaction, chaos ensues, resulting in the tragic deaths of both Ntombizonke and her colleague, Samuel Arendse.

In the aftermath of this collapse, Jodie embraces the legacy of Ntombizonke and dons the hood of a vigilante herself. Driven by vengeance, she confronts FJ Nolte in his home, delivering her own brand of justice, marking his chest with Ntombizonke’s initials—a chilling nod to an ancient ritual of retribution.

Though she faces suspension from the police force and is branded a criminal, Jodie gains a measure of protection from her commanding officer, who denies any ties to her actions. Undeterred, she prepares to board a plane to Iran, intent on bringing down the last remaining perpetrator— the Iranian Sheikh— to finalize her quest for justice.
