Ifalakhe
This series is a beautifully crafted story of raging kingdoms, power-hungry kings and their deceptive kin. When King Khombindlela has two sons by two different mothers at the same moment, a powerful prophecy decrees that one of them will save the kingdom, and the other spells its doom.
The events not only threaten the royal lineage but can also change the course of a war that threatens the fate of more than one kingdom. Heavy indeed is the head that wears the crown.
Ifalakhe was created by Stained Glass Productions which also produced Mzansi Magic show eHostela. The 13-part drama series stars Bheki Sibiya, Bheki Ngcobo, Chris Radebe and Sthandwa Nzuza.
Ifalakhe is streaming on Showmax express from Mzansi Magic.
