The 2022 South African Film and Television Awards (Saftas) took place over the weekend with virtual ceremonies on both nights and the names of the Saftas winners are in.
Hosted by Mpho Popps, Khutso Theledi and Ryle De Morny under the theme “Frame The Future”, the ceremony sought to honour the best in South African film and television production.
The main show was prefaced by a Saftas red carpet show hosted by Palesa Tembe and Lasizwe Dambuza.
The pair went back and forth interviewing some of the evening’s guests about what they chose to wear for the evening.
Just over an hour later, Mpho, Ryle and Khutso took over host duties to oversee the award announcements.
