Blood and Water is all about a teen who becomes obsessed after thinking she’s found her abducted sister

Blood and Water is all about 16-year-old Puleng Khumalo. After meeting 17-year-old Fikile Bhele at a party, she begins to think she may be her long-lost sister, who was abducted at birth. Her thinking turns to obsession as she tries to connect the dots and prove her theory. She transfers to the same school as Fikile just so she can find out the truth.

The Netflix synopsis for the show says: “After crossing paths at a party, a Cape Town teen sets out to prove whether a private school swimming star is her sister who was abducted at birth.”
