It's been a horrid start to brand-new e.tv telenovela The Black Door for young truck driver Khaya (Zamani Mbatha). His brother Chuma (Thobani Nzuza) has been murdered and Khaya is being forced to repay the cash that Chuma stole from local business entrepreneur Mam Rebecca (Linda Sebenzo). And it's not like Khaya is working in her factory. Instead, he's got a job at her brothel The Black Door - and it's because his sexual prowess is something all women in the area know about. But so far, he's been something of a disappointment. “Khaya is actually like a walking corpse in his new 'job'," explains Zamani. “Khaya doesn't feel anything (in what he's doing]. He's going through the motions of this. He doesn't want to be here." Not that he's getting out of this deal anytime soon...
