When life knocked her down, she rose stronger every time.
Never Give Up is an inspiring drama based on the true story of South African icon Pinky Mothie. Set from 1960s Durban to the present day, the film follows Pinky’s journey from a determined young woman who marries for love despite family opposition, to becoming part of a celebrated entertainment power couple during apartheid. After the tragic death of her husband, Mothie, Pinky is left to raise four children alone while facing debt and hardship. Refusing to surrender, she rebuilds their business, uplifts others through youth development and women’s empowerment, and becomes a respected figure in the entertainment industry. It is a powerful story of resilience, love, and perseverance.
