Ndingowakho (2024)
After growing up with her aunt in the suburbs, Thandi is forced to move back to the township and in with her estranged mother, Phindi, due to her poor academic performance at school.
Pamela Mabedumane (Umzi Watsha) stars as Thandi, with SAFTA nominee Talitha Ndima (Soft Life) as Phindi. Also look out for Zukisa Matola (Uzalo) and Lebo Pelesane (Muvhango).
Part of Showmax’s first-time directors slate in partnership with The Joburg Film Festival, Ndingowakho is helmed by Siphokazi Mtila and produced by multi-award winners Urban Brew.
