The school that Zama attends was shot at Sans Souci Girls' High in Newlands, they even used their uniform, with the exception of a different name and badge on the blazer. The foyer always displaces select pieces from art students.

The series is really awesome, and I thought at first that it was an American movie!

Where was KB’s house filmed? That view where his mom is talking to his dad in episode 2, season 3, is breathtaking.

In S3E4, just after the titles where Chris is floating in the pool and Lunga brings him a green smoothie, this is filmed at a house overlooking Camps Bay at the corner of Kloof Road and Clifton Road.
