Come Monday 4 April 2016, M-Net’s local entertainment channel Mzansi Magic (161) will be the ultimate destination for a brand new telenovela, Greed and Desire, launching at 19:30.
Greed and Desire explores the themes of ambition, wealth, power, secrets and desire in a world established in Bloemfontein.
The tragic journey of the prominent Makhetha family sets in motion a series of events when the patriarch of the family is killed in a fit of rage. His murder becomes the root of a dreadful secret that sees the family empire falling into the wrong hands. Lives are ruined when the family learns the truth about who killed the head of the house, thus threatening the fate of the empire that was built from nothing to an established jewel.
