Streaming giant Netflix is totally upping its game when it comes to African originals, and we’re excited to share that the platform has just announced a brand-new series now streaming on the platform.
The 6-episode series, titled ‘Justice Served’, follows the high-stakes drama unfolding in a hijacked South African courtroom, while tension and conflict simmer on the streets and threaten to divide the country, families and friends.
Fans are taken into the courtroom to unpack a white man, Allan Harve, played by Morné Visser, who is accused of killing a young black man.
Delivering an electrifying performance, Hlomla Dandala plays freedom fighter and military veteran Azania Maqoma who styles himself as an arbiter of justice while driving secret agendas to settle scores with old foes. The cast includes renowned actors Motshabi Tyelele, Jack Devnarain, Lerato Mvelase and Pallance Dladla.
Created by Meraki Studios, the show explores the tenets of the Constitution that promises an accused a fair trial and presumption of innocence in the backdrop of a deeply unjust society, corrupt government and a disillusioned nation.
‘Justice Served’ is now streaming on Netflix.
