Welcome To Our Blog!

Firstly, thank you for taking the time to be a little inquisitive about us!

Who are we?

We're a student film crew bringing you... a film. (Please, do laugh!)

We'll jump back on the humour later, but for now we'd like to introduce the world to a film that is important and creates a narrative of forwardness, for the African woman. 'Witches' consists of great deal of subtext that is integral to the progression of how women and culture are viewed and have been viewed in society through time. The focus is of course placed on African women.

The detriments of the expectations of black women through the centuries to the present has unfortunately paved a gravel way for their footprints to land upon. There is beauty in the way that women rise from every detriment and there is beauty in the way women preserve, keep, protect, and become.

Being an experimental film, it has given the crew a chance to explore film in a different outlook. The subject matter delved into in Witches is merged with the aesthetic value of culture thus too making it a fashion film.

The 'Witches' team has brought to life a telling-tale of one woman's journey to the arrival of becoming, through her own subconscious, through the power of cultural preservation and in addition the beauty of womanhood.

'Witches' is directed by Kenyan 3rd Year AFDA Cape Town student, Njeri Githu, and will be screened during the 2018 AFDA Experimental Festival, next month. Stay tuned for more about the film, the behind the scenes images, information on the process of the concept and creation of the film, and of course, more about the cast on the crew.
