Loved Out starring Somizi Mhlongos daughter, Bahumi Mhlongo and veteran actress Khabonina Qubeka, tells a story that many can relate to: love is important, but self-love is vital.

The movie, which is slated for release tomorrow, is written, directed and produced by Tendayi Nyeke.

At the centre of Loved Out is the complex relationship between a mother and daughter.

The story revolves around Ruva, played by Love, Sex and 30 Candles star Mhlongo, whose life is far from perfect.

Despite her ambition and drive to run her family restaurant, she often finds herself in the role of caretaker for her mother, Gloria, played by Qubeka.

Gloria's wild behaviour often complicates Ruva’s dreams, making the journey to success a comedic roller-coaster.

Loved Out explores the idea that love for others, for our passions and places, isn't enough to make us whole unless we nurture self-love,’ shares Nyeke.

She continues: “It showcases the struggles we go through when trying to grow personally while the people we love might seem to be standing in our way.”

The movie is inspired by Nyeke's own journey when she moved to South Africa from Zimbabwe nearly ten years ago.
