We get to learn about challenges of a family-run business. We hope the show inspires a spirit of entrepreneurship that is so desperately needed in this country. The world has been going through a lot, with lockdown that subsequently caused the economic downfall and amore unemployment. We show a man who tries and fails. But he always picks himself up and keeps fighting to achieve success. This enduring spirit is what we hope will inspire the audience in their career endeavors.
This will be Sebotsane’s return to SABC 2 comedy drama after he played the role of Philane; a sensitive rugby player, in the SABC2 sitcom Stokvel, from 2006-2012. He’s also starred in SABC2’S Afrikaans show, Andries Plak in 2007.
