Isibaya depicts the battle for wealth and power between the Zungus and the Ndlovus, two rival families living in Thukela Valley. The bitter feud between the two powerful taxi families continues in Egoli, the city of gold, where the Zungus seek to build their fortune. The promise of riches and old cycles of revenge tear them apart, but one man’s quest for reconciliation and peace leads them all to understand that they can prosper together. In the past they battled over cattle, but the taxi business has become the new commodity. This world is reflected in the title Isibaya, which means The Kraal - where a herd of cattle and goats are kept - but is also colloquially a reference to a fleet of taxi's and new wealth.
The narrative not only tackles the feud between the two families but at its heart it is an epic love story between Thandeka and S'bu, the younger generation of their feuding families. It is a story of love, of betrayal and of big dreams. (M-Net Africa)
