Synopsis
Johannesburg South African men who call themselves "Swenkas" compete for cash and prizes in an event that's part fashion show, part choreography, and part moral code. While they may work construction during the week, on the weekends the Swenkas get swanky in order to be judged for their suits, their moves, and their cleanliness.
