Season 1


Isifiso is a South African television drama series about a woman who craves the approval of her mother and those around her and will stop at almost nothing to get it.

The series is about a woman living under her younger sister's shadow, envying her seemingly-perfect life – but not all is what it seems, as she quickly and tragically learns.

After a tragedy, Bazothini can now live her dream life, but is the grass really greener on the other side? Will Bazothini get her happily ever after?

The series stars Nelisa Mchunu, Melusi Yeni, Ntando Mncube and Zinhle Mabena.

The supporting cast includes Duduzile Ngcobo, Bandile Maphalala, Sjava and Nkosinathi Keswa.

In the series premiere: Bazothini is scarred when her mother is not impressed by her promotion.

At a party, Bazothinis jealousy gets the better of her and she gets into a fight with Nobuhle, which ends in death.

At the funeral, MaNgobese realises that there is something going on between Julia and Siboniso.

Bazothini stops feeling sorry for herself and makes a decision that shocks Mhlengi.

Called to action by Julia's determination, Bazothini makes a decision that finally gets her a compliment from her mother.

MaNgobese and Bazothini gang up on Julia.

Mhlengi moves into the mansion and Julia takes full advantage of Mhlengi's presence and immerses herself in Siboniso's life.

Frustrated, Bazothini makes a heartbreaking decision.

Isifiso is an M-Net Original, created by Chris Q. Radebe and produced for 1Magic by Match Point Productions.

The executive producer is Chris Q. Radebe and the series producer is Khobi Ledwaba.
