Nambitha Ben-Mazwi

Well, it’s success that is shining brightly within and on the global stage. And we applaud that! Kickstarting our theme Year of Yes, she gets candid about what saying yes to yourself really looks like.

“The Lion of Judah lives within me, I will not fail.” Words that carried me whilst living an answered prayer in Switzerland, having a few days to learn Swiss German and star in the biggest European entity, Tatort. I am excited to finally make this known, and share my story. Thank you @contrastfilm.ch , Swiss TV, and @claudiofaeh for trusting in me. To God be ALL the glory! 💫🌍

Today, 10 years ago, June 2015, I embarked on a journey after leaving corporate strategy, after having “found myself” whilst living in New York, as I embarked on a journey of pursuing my calling as a thespian. This right here, is 10 years of milestones that only God holds the glory for. I have been blessed with a decade of being used as a vessel, to touch YOUR lives and boy has it been an honour. The accolades and getting to make history has motivated the next trajectory of my career. Thank you to my family, my friends, my co-stars, agents, directors, channels, managements, crew, producers, and casting directors who have held my hand throughout this journey. Here’s to propelling the legacy my late uncle, Winston Ntshona, left me with, and impacting lives through storytelling. Thank you Yeshua 🙏🏾💫 #LeadingLady #2025Showreel

Danke! My German has had to work overtime the past 24 hours as I navigate all your heartwarming reviews, messages (which I have to always translate) & to see how you all have embraced my work truly shows art crosses all boundaries. Thank you Europe for the love - as you all gathered in watch parties, my closest friends and I also celebrated here in South Africa. Thank you for opening your hearts to Moya’s story 🥹 #tatort

“This is more than a role, it’s a moment” @actorspaces I am immensely proud to share the official movie trailer of what has become my biggest cross - over yet. Being trusted to be a leading export in what is Europes longest airing entity, TATORT, and pour my soul into such an important story for Africans around the world, is a ministry I take with the utmost care. Tatort - Könige Der Nacht premiers this Sunday, 3 May, 8pm in Switzerland, Austria, and Germany on SRF, ARD, ONE, and ORF. Grateful to my fellow cast, our incredible director, SRF, production, agent, my family, and the best crew to work with. This one is for 🇿🇦💫🌍 Thank you Yeshua! #AllGloryToGod #Tatort

A pinch me moment that I could keep frozen in time. 2 months of memories as a leading lady in Switzerland. 🇨🇭 🎬 #Tatort

My off days from set looked a lil something like this… exploring my childhood dream and obsession (Heidi in the alps) by getting on the wrong boat and getting terribly lost. However - totally worth it 😍

Finally! Welcome to the start of my visual diary of living in Zürich, Switzerland, shooting the movie Tatort. This was a milestone I never in my wildest dreams saw coming, but God said you still have more history to make in unprecedented markets 🥹🇨🇭

I’m trying out these raw vlogs to let you more into my routines, processes and escapes. Welcome to two nights away on what I call, my De-rolling and recovery trips. Enjoy 🥰
