Africa-Press – Lesotho. An award winning actor Lebohang Nyakallo Ntsane who played a role in the award winning film The Forgotten Kingdom during his childhood now backs a new role in the Showmax film Molamu which aired in 2021.
Ntsane has shared with Arts&Lifestye how he acquired the role that changed his life. “I was contacted by the Director of Molamu Monyane Tekateka who expressed interest in working with me in his next project.
When I got the role I was really excited because at that time, I was not doing much with my life except having school. I got the role after finishing my examinations
at the National University of Lesotho (NUL), this came at an opportune time when I just finished my exams, I was ready to take it and I did. “I was really excited that finally something as remarkable as that is happening in
my life and that some people out there actually see my work. This was an opportunity that knocked on my door at the right time when I just finished my
degree. The exciting part about all these is that I did not even go for an interview I was head-hunted,” he noted. He recalled the first time he was on the screen; he described it as a beautiful
and yet a shocking experience. “I usually had a mentality that people who appear on television are mostly important. I felt like I belonged to a different world, the thought that someday I would take part in the world of
television was never in my plans but it turned out to be an honour. In my acting career I just want to tell stories that people resonates with. I want people to
see themselves in characters that I play, I also want to be unique and creative, not play one person in every film role that I acquire,” Ntsane indicated.
He said Lesotho’s movie industry is still recurring and petite, saying the population also applies to the difference in the movie industry explaining that
Lesotho’s population is fewer. He pointed that the music and the movie industry in the country is not fully supported. Ntsane mentioned that although they have
such a huge difference, he loves working in both countries. “I encourage everyone who has taken a leap into the music industry to go to school because their talent can only get them to a specific point. But education can last for a life time,” he said.
