In Sue Nyathi's A Family Affair the Mafus present a picture of steadiness: Pastor Abraham and Phumla lead their congregation while raising three very different daughters.
Xoliswa returns from abroad determined to reshape the family business; Yandisa, newly in love, tests boundaries with bold choices; Zandile, settled into marriage, quietly questions her future. Beneath the respectability of sermons and Sunday gatherings, old grievances and concealed truths stir, threatening the bonds that hold them together.
Humorous, compassionate and sharply observed, this generational saga explores loyalty, ambition and the cost of appearances for a family under strain.
