Stories about Jozi and the city s habitants, and films made by local filmmakers, will be screened over a three-day period at several venues throughout Johannesburg, including The Bioscope Independent Cinema in the Maboneng precinct in the Jo burg CBD.

To resonate with audiences and complement the line-up of local films, several international films will screen.

The festival also offers Q&A sessions with filmmakers in attendance; as well as workshops and seminars.
