Season 1
Ha Molefi is a South African television drama series about a father and son grieving the loss of a mother and wife, forcing them to deal directly with the complexities of their relationship.
Thabang Molefi (T.J. Mokhuane) is a queer teenager from Pimville, Soweto, who has just lost his mother, Mam' Linda, and is on a journey of healing and self-discovery.
He lives with his father Ntate Molefi (Dingaan Khumalo) who is also grieving the loss of his wife, and together they set off on a journey of discovery that lays bare their fears and hopes while honouring Mam'Linda's memory.
Thabang dreams of winning the all-round category at the annual Ballroom Vogue Nights and he draws inspiration from his late mother, who was a musical sensation in the '90s, and who always encouraged Thabang to live his truth and follow his dreams.
Ntate Molefi, on the other hand, loves his son and has accepted him as he is.
However, the recently-widowed father has to learn that he must go beyond just loving his son but also make the effort to open up to him.
Will Thabang realise his dream of celebrating his identity through Vogue / Ballroom while navigating this loving but tense relationship with his mourning father?
