Kampala: Sanyuka TV is set to expand its line up of compelling local content with the premiere of ‘Borders’, a new drama series that promises to captivate audiences with its gripping storyline, dynamic characters, and deep-rooted cultural themes.
The show will air every Sunday at 7:30 PM, offering viewers a fresh and thought-provoking entertainment experience.
At the heart of ‘Borders’ is Pearl played by Tania Shakira Kankindl, an ambitious young dancer with big dreams of making it in the entertainment industry.
Alongside her dance troupe, The African Jewel, she earns a chance to compete in a major dance competition in Nairobi. However, without travel documents, she is faced with the daunting reality of borders—both physical and societal—that threaten to keep her from reaching her goal.
Determined to cross over by any means necessary, Pearl’s journey leads her to David played by Quincy Mulama, a young Kenyan immigration officer and former acquaintance who has his own secrets to keep. As their lives become intertwined, the show delves into themes of ambition, sacrifice, love, and the challenges of navigating an unforgiving world.
‘Borders’ is yet another testament to Sanyuka TV’s growing influence in Uganda’s creative arts and entertainment industry. The channel has consistently supported homegrown content, providing a platform for Ugandan stories, actors, and filmmakers to showcase their craft to a wider audience.
“Sanyuka TV is committed to telling stories that resonate with Ugandans, and ‘Borders’ is a perfect example of this,” said Nicholas Ngobi, the Sanyuka TV brand manager. “It reflects the struggles and triumphs of young creatives while showcasing the richness of Ugandan culture through dance and music.”
With 15 weekly episodes, each ranging between 25 to 35 minutes, ‘Borders’ offers a powerful storyline blending drama, romance, and personal struggles that many Ugandans can relate to, Borders also celebrates culture through its strong focus on dance, music, and the creative arts industry.
Featuring a talented cast of both emerging and seasoned Ugandan actors, the series authentically explores real-life challenges such as identity, migration, and breaking societal barriers, making it a must-watch for audiences seeking compelling and relatable storytelling.
