It’s a tale of a powerful secret, a deadly betrayal and a daughter’s search for the truth, played against the backdrop of business and politics in South Africa today.
Drama lovers, Monday nights are now booked because the murder-mystery series Housekeepers Season 3 is here, with the phenomenal Thando Thabethe bringing all the emotion to undercover housekeep Linda’s new case. Linda couldn’t save her mom… but can she save her brother?
April also sees the start of Gomora Season 2 from Monday, 25 April and DiepCity Season 2 from Monday, 4 April, so hold onto your seats, telenovela fans, because the April action will get red hot and we can expect a handful of new storylines to kick off, including a big prison drama tale for DiepCity’s Mgedeza.
There are also plenty of movies from grown-ups and kids to enjoy, too. And action fans, there’s something really special coming to KIX (DStv Channel 114). The extraordinary documentary movie Kung Fu Stuntmen takes us inside those phenomenal stunts from some of the best-ever martial arts films, and we hear tales from the stuntmen themselves, the actors and the stunt choreographers. It’s a love letter to the art form, filmed with real passion, laughter and so many stories!
