Een Keer Om Die Son S1

Een Keer Om Die Son follows the lives of one family over the course of a calendar year, charting their ups and downs when tragedy strikes and everything changes overnight.

Silwerskerm winner Jacques Bessenger (Koek, Donkerbos) and four-time SAFTA nominee Jana Kruger co-star as neurosurgeon Ruan and his wife, Lani, while their three children are played by Liam Bosman (Meerkat Maantuig), Alma Van Heerden (Spooksoeker), and newcomer Klara Van Zyl. Also look out for the likes of double SAFTA winner Deon Lotz and Silwerskerm winner Pierre van Pletzen (Hans Steek Die Rubikon Oor), not to mention Donnalee Roberts as Ruan’s sister Amé.
