28s

Based on the life of actual gang defector Magadien Wentzel (Mothusi Magano), The Number finds Magadien at a crossroads. Part of the 28s the "warrior" faction of The Numbers Magadien has risen to the upper echelons of power. But when a young recruit is killed, the hardened prisoner begins to question his allegiance to his family on the inside, which has cost him his family on the outside. Now under the watch of a new warden, Magadien has the chance to make early release if he can turn his back on the 28s, and if he can find the strength to face himself.
