Act 01 — The name
Buka means watch.
In isiZulu, isiXhosa and Sesotho, buka is the word you already use. Now it's the place you do it. Stories that start here and travel everywhere — on phones, in taxis, between classes.
The thesis
Made for the swipe. Built for the screen you already hold.
Three acts in ninety seconds. A continent of stories, written for the format the rest of the world is still catching up to.

Act 02 — The format
Drama, compressed.
Ninety seconds, one obsession. After the Bell follows four learners in Mthatha through the kind of week that changes everything.
Act 03 — The languages
Languages we speak.
Sepedi in the foreground, English in the captions, the heat of Limpopo throughout. Mountain of Graves is a thriller in the language it was meant to be told in — one of six series we're shooting across four mother tongues.
