Soon-to-be mom Sne (Nombulelo Mhlongo) has been to hell and back at the hands of her abusive husband Dr Dhlomo (Nyaniso Dzeze). And when she finally plucks up the courage to pack up and leave him, her mom (offscreen) talks her into going back to Dhlomo for the sake of her baby. “Sne was in a very bad place because by now everyone knows that she’s a victim of abuse. She feels exposed, vulnerable and naked, but most of all she feels ashamed,” says Nombulelo. “However, Sne is forced to think twice after she’s asked to consider how her child’s life would pan out if she leaves Dhlomo,” adds the actress.
This ultimately leads to Sne putting her child before herself and returning to the manipulative Dhlomo. But he has more plans for his wife: He wants to isolate her from the people who love and care for her and who want her to get out of the toxic marriage.
