“We are looking to work with people of all ages, whether the interested individual has experience in acting or not.
“When I started in the acting industry there were limited opportunities. For one to break into the acting industry you had to move to Johannesburg.
“This is why it is important for me to bring this platform to the people of Kwatsaduza,” said Mathunjwa.
The organisation is working in partnership with the Gauteng Film Commission.
Sedith explained the movie is set to motivate people to return to Christ.

“The movie tackles the journey to connecting with one’s spirituality.
“What I wanted to do with this movie was to inspire and remind people of the power of God.
“I have noted that there is a lack of Christian movies, and I felt we need them for our youth especially,” she said.
Sedith also emphasised the amount of hidden talent within Kwatsaduza.
“We have lots of talented individuals in our communities.
“However, due to a lack of opportunities, we do not get to witness the talent, which is a shame.
“I am excited to be working with local talent while also learning,” she added.
