The Riviera is a comedy drama about the experiences of a 12-year-old Muslim girl, Riana Isaacs, growing up on the Cape Flats during 1989. While the country and the world are in dramatic upheaval, Riana innocently sets out to achieve her own personal milestones: become head girl in her final year at Catholic primary school, star in the school play and make the boy of her dreams fall in love with her. Created and narrated by the inimitable Quanita
Adams, whose own life inspired this story, The Riviera introduces Kelly Damon as Riana and stars Keenan Arrison as Naz and Chantal Herman as Liz, the parents of the culturally blended and hilarious Isaacs family
