Marked tells the powerful story of Babalwa, a devoted mother, wife, and law-abiding cash-in-transit guard who finds herself in a heartbreaking situation. When her daughter is diagnosed with a life-threatening illness, Babalwa is pushed to the edge. With no financial support and desperate to save her daughter’s life, she decides to break the law. She teams up with a trusted work colleague and a reckless newcomer to pull off a dangerous heist.
Netflix described the show with a chilling teaser on social media: “Desperate to pay for her daughter’s life-saving surgery, devout ex-cop Babalwa turns to an unholy savior to help her plan a daring heist.”
But things don’t go as planned. What starts as an act of love quickly turns into a nightmare. The plan begins to fall apart, and betrayal and danger force Babalwa to make even more painful choices. The story explores how far a mother will go when left with no good options, showing how fear and love can lead good people down dark paths.
