Most of us are tired of banking ads. This one for Nedbank and Joe Public hits different. A powerful reminder that managing your money takes the same grit as training for gold.

Watch the full film. Feel the burn. Get money fit.

Justice Rendani Mukheli new film for TikTok delves into the complex relationship between a single father and his teenage daughter.

A story about self-discovery, inspired by his daughter's passion for music, he steps out of his comfort zone to connect and bridge the gap between them, embarking on a journey of self-discovery.

This simple powerful piece once again speaks to Justice’s ability to treat his subject matter with humility, dignity and heart 🖤
