According to Mr S.Mbatha of the AFF Communications Department, the festival treated the Amajuba district and KZN to a series of workshops, documentaries, short films, and other engaging content from a variety of filmmakers.
“The Amajuba Film Festival is a one-of-a-kind film festival in Newcastle. This platform allows filmmakers and the general public to discuss trends and issues affecting their society and communities” he said.
The Festival was founded to provide a platform for local and international filmmakers to showcase films produced between 2019 to date.
It also stimulated and served as a platform to educate, entertain, and inform the audience on social, art, business, political, and other issues affecting society around the world.
The main attractions were feature and short films, workshops, and discussions about digitizing the film industry/sector.
The Festival also helped to advance people from historically disadvantaged communities in the area by providing exposure and access to diverse industries, as well as creating job opportunities for Newcastle’s youth.
