The second [[Afrikaans]] film was  ''[[Dingetjie is Dynamite!]]'' (October, 1975).
 It is an action comedy about Daan and Dingetjie, two layabouts who live on their run-down farm with their sister (Sus), who's sick and tired of their lazy ways. She threatens to run off with the first man she meets, and so when handsome young Bill arrives to have his car fixed, the brothers get nervous. They decide they will have to frighten Bill away but he is more than a match for them.
