About Agter Elke Man
The series follows Marietjie Barnhoorn, the estranged wife of a successful businessman; Leana Steyn, the private secretary of an elderly business tycoon, who is ruthless in her ambitions to overcome her impoverished past; and aging ballerina Mercia Meyer, who returns to South Africa after living and working abroad and has to deal with the hostility of her fellow South Africans.
Directed by Franz Marx, Agter Elke Man leans on a strong ensemble — Dulcie van den Bergh, Cyrilene Slabbert, Steve Hofmeyr — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The series landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1985.
