Men of the South 

Men of the South is a gripping tale of love, betrayal, friendship, power and money. Struggling jazz musician Mfundo is forced to take on the role of house-husband. Mzilikazi is fighting his own demons – he is a gay man in a heterosexual marriage. Tinaye is a Zimbabwean struggling to gain citizenship in South Africa, hence his current situation – underpaid and overqualified. This is the story about the struggle of three men to be accepted in a prejudiced society.
