    Synopsis
    The term bergie is a South Africanism that refers to people that are homeless, since they sought refuge on the slopes of Table Mountain in the past (in Afrikaans: Tafelberg). When a law enforcement officer has to remove homeless people to make way for a 10 km fun-run, he has to navigate the complex intersection of the law and personal responsibility when confronted with the dignity of those often ignored.
