Seriously Single

Seriously Single (2020) is a South African Netflix rom-com you can watch online on iFILM. Dineo loves being in love — she wants the ring, the future, the whole plan — but her latest boyfriend ghosts her without warning.

Her recovery coach is her best friend Noni, a DJ and proud serial bachelorette who treats being single as a lifestyle, not a problem to fix. The two strike a pact: Dineo will learn to enjoy her freedom instead of refreshing her ex's social feeds. It goes badly, mostly because her job in digital marketing is literally to scroll other people's posts all day, and her thumb keeps drifting back to that one profile. It's a breezy, talky comedy about the Johannesburg party scene, awkward dates, and the gap between being alone and being lonely.

Directed by sibling duo Katleho and Rethabile Ramaphakela, the film runs on the easy chemistry between Fulu Mugovhani and Tumi Morake and a local sense of humor most rom-coms never reach for. Light, charming, no homework required. Stream Seriously Single (2020) online on iFILM.
