The local film industry has over the years proved to have great creativity as evidenced by the success of local films that even won awards internationally.

In a breakthrough, local film makers have been accorded a unique opportunity to showcase their productions across Africa, with a call for content from M-Net Africa Channels on DStv.

MultiChoice Zimbabwe publicity and public relations manager Liz Dziva said: “The call has been made to source locally produced films, soaps, sitcoms, documentaries and lifestyle programmes from producers in the country to enhance the variety and style of material already being screened on the M-Net African channels.

“These channels are designed to highlight productions made in Africa and Zimbabwean producers should respond to this wonderful opportunity for an expansion of their audiences on a continental scale through exposure on DStv.”

In a statement, Dziva said interested producers should make contact with Cheryl Uys-Allie of M-Net Africa Channels through her e-mail address [email protected].
