Three days. Free for everyone.
Day One · 26 November 2026
We open with a celebration of creativity and community: the films, the experts leading our masterclasses and the vision behind Ma-Tšhabeng Voices. A masterclass on film concept development follows. The opening screening is a South African documentary with a Q&A alongside its subject and filmmaker, and the day closes with a further block of screenings.
Day Two · 27 November 2026
Morning masterclasses on smartphone filmmaking, acting and the business of film, from production finance to revenue streams, taught hands-on by experienced facilitators. In the afternoon a documentary opens the screenings, with a Q&A alongside its director, followed by films selected through the open call.
Day Three · 28 November 2026
Morning masterclasses on documentary filmmaking and on building a sustainable photography business, and a content creation masterclass in the afternoon. Industry professionals share case studies, budget models and lessons from their own journeys. The feature film selections follow, with Q&As where filmmakers are present. The popcorn is free too.
Session times and exact programme headings will be added here once the programme is final.
