Award-winning storyteller, actress and author Sihle-isipho Bikitsha Nontshokweni has won Best Actress at the Moondust Helsinki Film Awards 2026 for her role in the film Sierras Gold .
Going onto set, I was quite nervous, admits Nontshokweni. I had not acted in a long time and wondered if I still had the acting bone in me. Acting has always been where I find my breath.
The thrilling comedy film, written and directed by Adze Ugah, also won Best Low Budget Film at the festival in Finland, out of 427 projects considered from across the world.
