The major conflict occurs as Abel tries to dominate and control Noah's mother, Patricia, while Noah urges her to leave him and free herself from domestic abuse. A secondary conflict occurs as Noah tries to find an identity and career path, despite occupying an ambiguous position in South African society and having grown up in poverty amidst systemic racism.
