Axe Nikiwe is all about the Benjamins and the Randelas. An
up-and-coming property agent, desperate to make his mark in life
who believes you have to spend money in order to make it. Only
problem is Axe is spending a lot more than he is making, driving
the flashy car and trying to live up to the Motsepes. This
extravagant lifestyle gets him into trouble with loan sharks and,
through a series of mishaps, in trouble with the law. His
fast-paced career is rudely interrupted when he gets sentenced to
200 hours of community service at an old-age home. There he meets
and gets assigned to Henry, a grumpy old man who spent his life
chasing money and now finds himself miserable and alone. Their
story is a comic clash of cultures spiced up with hard-hitting life
lessons.
At the old-age home, Axe finds himself intrigued by the
beautiful manager Renilwe, whose value system is totally different
to his. Being in a world where people are the most valuable
resource, Axe finds his own worldviews regularly challenged. But
due to his make-money nature and his growing debt troubles he
negotiates a deal that compromises the wellbeing of the oldsters.
It also causes Renilwe to lose all faith in him. Can a man like Axe
realise true wealth doesn t lie in temporal things? Can he change
his own journey to make a mark that will cost him everything but
gain him much more? Nothing for Mahala challenges us all to take a
comical and critical look at our own relationships with money, and
people.
