The film industry is getting fierce. Every year that passes by African film makers are dedicating resources and exhibiting talents that are competing with the western and Asian film industries. This is as a result of support from film institutions such as Netflix, Multichoice etc.

This year’s Africa Magic Viewers’ Choice Awards (AMVCA) proved that with every edition comes with competitive skillset for cinema makers.

One of such exceptional works is the overall winner of the the 9^th edition (AMVCA) .

A film with great cinematography that speaks and appreciates our African landscapes, dressing and way of life.
