The brand-new show is filled with thrills, betrayal, and some unforgettable performances!
The story follows a young woman who is desperate for her mother’s approval and feels like she’s been living in her sister’s shadow for too long. When tragedy strikes, she suddenly has the freedom to live the life she’s always wanted, but will this new start be everything she hoped for or is it a case of ‘be careful what you wish for?'
“We’re bringing new shows that feature known faces while also unearthing new talent – it’s a good balance of keeping actors’ careers growing and opening up the industry, all while carrying on with our mission as Africa’s best storyteller,” says Shirley Adonisi, director of local entertainment channels at M-Net.
“Monday nights on Mzansi Magic are known and loved for bringing thrilling dramas that keep viewers intrigued, week after week. We’re glad to keep this slot dynamic and of a high standard, and Isifiso is the latest show that we trust will resonate with our viewers.”
These familiar South African faces include Nelisa Mchunu (Isibaya, Isithembiso); Melusi Yeni (The Wild); Ntando Mncube (The Wife), Zinhle Mabena (Isibaya), Duduzile Ngcobo (Uzalo) and award-winning musician Sjava.
Speaking about her character, Ngcobo says: “Bazothin’s mother is pushing her daughter to be successful because she had a child while she was young and her dreams got shattered. She was too busy [being] in love with Mdunge and [ended up] neglecting her dreams.”
Isifiso is the ideal new addition to any prime time slot and will keep viewers on their toes and eagerly awaiting more!
