New nail-biting series “Unseen” captured viewers attention from the first episode which flighted this past weekend.
Producers of the Cape Town-based series Blood and Water created the six-episode series.
Starring Gail Mabalene in a leading role “Unseen” is about a woman named Zenzi Mwale who starts to investigate her husband’s disappearance, only to get caught up in a seedy underworld full of dangerous criminals and corrupt business heads.
This series is centred on how a cleaning lady is able to move in and around spaces without being noticed - hence the name “Unseen”. In typical Mzanzi style South Africans took to Twitter to voice their opinion.
I'd make @GailMabalane dance so she can smile despite all the tension she was holding in her body. She sustained that character like rent was due hmmkay?! Check out #UNSEENnetflix to see why if you haven't seen it already 😜 pic.twitter.com/anHffa3Jgc
