November’s Mzansi Originals continue to make the 20h30 slot the home of great storytelling, keeping viewers glued to their screens after a long week. 

 

Empowering smaller production companies and featuring a plethora of up-and-coming talent, the movies also feature some familiar faces, including: Isibaya star Muzi Mthabela; screen legend Magic Hlatshwayo; fan favourite Slindile Nodangala; Black Sails star Zethu Dlomo Mphahlele; singer and actor Zamo Dlamini; reality star Mpumi Ranaka; and Isibaya’s Amina Jack. 

 

But it’s not just the stars who are exciting – the movies are great, too! The Saturday night November films to look forward to on Mzansi Magic (DStv Channel 161) are:
