During Women’s Month and Reeva Steenkamp’s birthday month, M-Net will premiere My Name is Reeva, an emotionally charged three-part documentary series based on her life and the events that led to her shocking death on Valentine’s Day in 2013.
Part one of My Name is Reeva will premiere on M-Net (DStv Channel 101) on Thursday 25 August at 20:30. Part two will air on Thursday 1 September and the third installment on Thursday 8 September at 20:30. All three episodes will be available on catch up.
Her parents, Barry and June Steenkamp, have said of the series: “We fully endorse Warren and his team to bring out the truth in this documentary and show the world who Reeva really was.” Still searching for answers to why this senseless murder happened, My Name is Reeva attempts to answer this question. But, more importantly, it tells the true story of Reeva Steenkamp: her triumphs in the face of adversity, her fullness, her beauty, and her humanness, from the lens of those who loved her most.
Two-time South African Film and Television Awards (SAFTA)-nominated director, producer, and writer, Warren Batchelor of WB Productions directed the true crime docuseries, produced by David Taylor while the script was written by SAFTA winner Justin Strydom.
Be sure to tune in on Thursday 25 August at 8.30 pm. Episodes will be available on Catch Up after the broadcast. For updates and more on My Name is Reeva go to Facebook, Twitter and Instagram and use the #MyNameIsReeva.
