Isipho is a South African supernatural drama series created by Busisiwe Ntintili. It is an e.tv original production co-produced by HerbVision Multimedia and The Ntintili Factory for South African free-to-air channel e.tv and streaming service Viu.[1]

This comes after the success of one of e.tv's recent ratings generated by local drama Imbewu: The Seed, albeit its late-night slot of 21:30. e.tv reinvested in its local content offering.[2]

Plot

A young Moses Shezi grew up with the gift of seeing into the future. When his gift leads to the death of his mother, he keeps silent about his gift.

Now in his old age, Moses (Nimrod Nkosi) foresees his daughter Ntombi in danger. A series of visions show him four other strangers which he sets out to find in order to change the course of destiny: a conman, a gqom artist, a weatherman and a pastor's son, each with their own special gifts and conundrums.[3]
