My Brother’s Keeper S1
The concluding season of My Brother’s Keeper was DStv’s Most Streamed Title of 2024.
From hit-makers Rhythm World Productions (Umkhokha the Curse, Sibongile and the Dlaminis), The Mzansi Magic telenovela tells the story of a family thrown into a deadly succession battle, as Nqubeko, the headstrong and overambitious son of a mistress, breaks the rules of “ukungena” by going after his brother’s widow, Fakazile.
As fan-favourite Donga, Sdumo Mtshali was named Best Actor in a TV Series at last year’s National Film and TV Awards. In addition, My Brother’s Keeper was nominated for four SAFTAs, including Most Popular TV Soap or Telenovela, Best Actor (for Lindani Nkosi as Mshengu, the patriarch we love to hate) and Best Supporting Actress (Hlengiwe Lushaba-Madlala, as the feisty MaMchunu).
The star-studded cast also includes SAFTA winners Wiseman Mncube (Shaka iLembe, The Wife), and Zola Nombona (Lockdown), as well as SAFTA nominee Rosemary Zimu (Savage Beauty) and rising star Mnqobi Kunene (How to Manifest a Man, Outlaws).
