Mzansi Magic’s latest series, Ifalakhe has only been on screens for four weeks but people think it might just be one of the best things to happen to the local TV scene.
Watching the show, week after week, people applaud the production team behind it, Stained Glass TV.
Ifalakhe which can be loosely translated to ‘inheritance’ is a story of the powerful Okuhle tribe who wage war against the Khanya people who have been raiding their cattle and killing their women and children.
The storyline of this drama series is set in the precolonial of Southern Africa gets more intense when the Okuhle King led by Khombindlela, played by Bheki Sbiya, who has a prophecy which could change the fate of the Okuhle tribe lingering over his shoulders.
“This prophecy not only threatens his lineage of the rule of his true heir but also gives him an unnerving task of ensuring it does not come to fruition,” Stained Production director Mmamitse Thibedi said.
It was the show’s portrayal of black hair that also caught our attention.
According to the credits, the team responsible for hair on the show is made up of; Ronwyn Jarret, Evelyn Martin and Lindiwe Ndlovu.
And they do a kickass job.
Here’s proof:
In true Stained Glass style, the hair was thought out thoroughly and it shows.
We cannot help but stan!
