In our efforts to grow the number of South Africans who consume South African content, we are proud to once again partner with the Grahamstown National Arts Festival. The festival allows the community, which does not have access to a traditional cinema, an opportunity to watch films. We therefore invite the community and all festival delegates to join us as we showcase the best of South African talent. says NFVF CEO Zama Mkosi.
