eHostela S3
Mzansi Magic’s award-winning series eHostela returns for its third season – with an all-new storyline and cast!
The acclaimed drama is now an anthology series, and this season’s riveting drama is led by three-time SAFTA winner Siyabonga Thwala (Legacy, The River, Isibaya) and SAFTA nominees Gcina Nkosi (Umkhokha: The Curse) and Tony Kgoroge (Recipes for Love and Murder, Invictus).
The 13-episode season follows KaMabizela (Nkosi), a widow out for vengeance, as she takes on ruthless gangster Ngwadi (Thwala), the man who betrayed and murdered her beloved husband, Mdletshe (Mpumelelo Bhulose from Uzalo). As KaMabizela’s bloody quest for justice puts a target on her family’s backs, will Ngwadi be made to pay or will he get away with murder?
Ehostela has already won three SAFTAs with a further six nominations. This year, Thwala is up for Best Actor in a TV Drama as Ngwadi.
