00:00What I really love about this event because it brings us as Africans together to recognise
00:11each other and celebrate one another so I think it's really important that we have days
00:15like this so we can take accountability and also recognise people who deserve to be recognised.
00:20This means a lot. It means competing with the best of Africa. It's amazing. We stand
00:28for you know African pan-African entertainment. I don't think our industry should just be about
00:34South Africa, Nigeria. You know we're all united so for a South African film to win here
00:40it's amazing because this is this is about pan-African stories.
00:46Where I've seen Hollywood in the next 10 years is maybe on first and foremost.
