Shaft 6 is set in Carlton, South Africa in 2006. The small town is shaken by the discovery of a body in the abandon Shaft 6 mine of Coleman Theron Gold. Sergeant, Bo Mazibuko and detective, Heinrich Theron, are appointed to investigate the murder. However, tensions run high when the town’s union threatens strike action if the mine is not shut down, and Theron is taken off the case. His father (Johan Theron) is the owner of the mine and they are suspicious of the coincidence, but a temporary deal is reached and the new partners find themselves in a race against time to solve the murder. When Johan approaches Bo to expedite the case, it becomes apparent that the two men are far more linked, and that the past is now not only threatening the town, but them as well.
