Joshua Manana

Most of the Film was shot  in Cape Town so our kids  have had the great experience of filming in the new Cape Town studios.
Mendela is played by a very well known British screen and TV Actor Idris Elber ( Ghost Rider, Thor, Legacy, Luther) and Winnie played by an equally famous British Actress Naomie Harris( Pirates of The Caribbean, Trauma, Miami Vice ).
