They’ve also consulted tribal leaders, and academic experts. Scripting and casting for the series is nearing completion and filming will soon start.
Muvhango creator, Duma Ndlovu who is the leading production says: “The earth, the elements, and the energy of humans connect in ways that are both physical and spiritual, both obvious and unseen.”
“Queen Modjadji was a living embodiment of this, and so we will explore what this royal title, and the women who’ve held it, have lived, sacrificed, lost, and achieved.”
Ndlovu adds that they also aim to be very entertaining with a strong episodic storyline, historical detail, set under unpredictable skies, where rain or storm, echoes what is happening in the lives of those below.
