Yoh! Bestie was filmed in the Western Cape, with Knysna serving as the primary setting for the destination wedding featured in the story. Additional scenes were shot in Plettenberg Bay, using coastal and outdoor locations along the Garden Route to establish the film’s setting.
Yoh! Bestie was produced by BBZee Films, and features the production team InterCityCrew.
The movie forms part of a large local slate set to hit Netflix this year. The streamer says the content will feature a mix of returning fan favourites, high-stakes drama and globally celebrated formats reimagined through a local lens.
