Following a disastrous drunken display at her younger sister's wedding, BUYI DUBE (38) has her parents worried that she's wasting her life working meaningless jobs. They insist that she takes her head out of the clouds and focus on finding herself a good man and settling down. Goofing around was fine at 20, even 30 but Buyi's almost 40. Buyi is absolutely guttered. Buyi returns from Kwa-Zulu Natal feeling hopeless about her love life situation. Where the hell is a heavier set, black woman going to find a man in South Africa? Desperate Buyi reluctantly allows her sexy, best friend, LINDI (36) to help find her a man from her exclusive 'man market'. Between questionable concoctions, a quirky magician with a cat obsession and a sex addict that can't get enough of a big butt, Buyi quickly loses hope of finding Mr. Right. Meanwhile GREG, an old schoolmate from Buyi's past who is in love with her comes to town with the aim of making Buyi a star comedian as her manager. But Buyi's on a mission to find a man, besides she's not funny. Inappropriate yes, but not funny - or is she? A hilariously, heart-warming story of acceptance and hope; LOOKING FOR LOVE follows one woman's journey to learning that the path to finding Mr. Right, starts with finding herself first. See less
