Nelisiwe Sibiya stars as a conflicted cop in e. tv's new drama 'Land of Mills and Money'

South African actress Nelisiwe Sibiya takes on the lead role of Phiwe in e.tv's new drama Land of Mills and Money. The show features a diverse cast of celebrated South African performers, such as Themba Ndaba, Jo-Anne Reyneke, and Zamani Mbatha. Phiwe, a tenacious young police officer, faces a life-altering event during a heist that leaves her with a secret she must keep hidden at all costs.

As she grapples with this burden, her relationships with family and colleagues are strained. Meanwhile, the show delves into a complex love story, as Phiwe's secret prevents her from being with her true love, Muzi Mhlongo. The series replaces the Afrikaans drama Kelders van Geheime on e.tv's 7.00pm time slot, a prime opportunity for families to gather and share powerful storytelling.

Helga Palmer, Group Head of Content Development and Strategy at eMedia, sees Land of Mills and Money as a new chapter in e.tv's evening programming, offering uninterrupted gripping daily dramas from 7.00pm to 11.00pm. The show is produced by Grounded Productions, with Ayanda Halimana as the head writer.
