This December, director Jerome Pikwane’s frightening fictional account of the mythological creature The Tokoloshe debuts on digital platforms and disc.

When Busi discovers an abandoned young girl in the hospital, who believes she is tormented by a supernatural force, Busi must face her own demons from her past in order to save the child from the abusive monster that pursues them both relentlessly.
The film from writers Richard Kunzmann and Jerome Pikwane, stars Petronella Tshuma, Kwande Nkosi, and Dawid Minnaar.
