A SOWETO LOVE STORY (2024)

For some weird reason the movie reminds me so much about a Nollywood movie called “A Naija Christmas”, the storyline was so similar, it felt like I was watching the same movie twice. In this movie a mother who was a widow, was so desperate to see her sons get married, she had faced all kinds of humiliation from other women in church and just couldn’t take it anymore, to push her 3 sons to settle down on time, she promises them a reward, she promised that any of her sons who find a wife and gets married before the end of the year, owns the main family home. All the boys were super excited with this challenge and the search for a good wife began, you need to watch this movie to see the length they had to go, to pull each other just to win the price, this was a simple and funny movie, one to just watch and relax.
