Summertide S1
Summertide follows Martin Field (SAFTA nominee Frank Rautenbach from Lioness), a marine biologist who relocates to False Bay with his two teenagers, Lucy and Tristan.
The stacked cast includes SAFTA nominee Monique Rockman (Gaia) as a Michelin-starred chef; Fleur du Cap nominee Andre Jacobs and three-time Fleur du Cap winner Terry Norton as Martin’s parents; and Tyrone Keogh (The Girl from St. Agnes) as his brother.
The M-Net family drama is produced by Corné and René van Rooyen through Red Letter Day Pictures (kykNET hit Alles Malan, South African Oscar entry Toorbos).
IOL’s Debashine Thangevelo says, “Summertide is a brilliantly cast family drama that mindfully deals with loss, love and hope… If you are a fan of family dramas like This is Us, A Million Little Things or Brothers & Sisters, the series will leave you in your feels.”
