After an explosive first season that saw Soraya (Bless Fortune) battle not one, but two powerful families to help clear her mother’s name and stay out of jail, Ghana’s gripping drama Inside Out is back for a second season.

Directed by Pascal Amanfo (Cartel: The Genesis), Inside Out is adapted from the South African series The Housekeepers, and also stars multi-award-winning actress Akorfa Edjeani (Azali, Aloe Vera), Edinam Atatsi (Aloe Vera), Jackie Ankrah, and Jeffrey Nortey.
