a thousand people attend Thokozani premiere
October 3rd, 2010 by gregoryDispatch from Thoko AD Matteo Matewere in Lilongwe re Thokozani world premiere:
The following day we made it to the institute in time for Thokozani, which was the last film to be viewed. The turn out was massive, almost a thousand plus enthusiastic youth of kawale and surrounding areas. The guest of honor was Minister of Sport and Culture. There was a very good reception at Kawale, a scene with Soldier (Lucius Banda) who made the crowd shout “Soldier Soldier Soldier.” Before the viewing we talked to the audience and the MIFF Director who asked how we managed with such a project. It was such a great experience, more than money, for myself. The experience was so fantastic talking in the presence of Government officials and foreign dignitaries.
