After three successful years with their public movie screening initiative, 76 Cinema, dedicated to promoting South African and African-made films, is excited to announce the fourth installment of their outreach program. Following previous screenings of films like "Glow in the Dark," "Boda Smandana," and "Everything Must Fall," they are once again committed to building and developing audiences for local cinema.

This November, 76 Cinema will host four outreach film screenings starting with Kutloanong, Odendaalsrus, on the 7th of November. They will kick off the series with "Love at First Crime," directed by Bloemfontein-based director Future Lehihi.

The second and third screenings will take place in the Xhariep region, with venues in Endenburg and Tromsburg, featuring "Jungle Beat" on the 14th and "A Sonnet for Sello" on the 21st of November.

In line with the 16 Days of Activism, on the 28th of November, they will screen the documentary "Black Women and Sex," directed by Godisamang Khonou. This powerful film delves into the experiences of three unique women—a South African transwoman, a woman jailed for a sex tape in Zambia, and a woman raised in a polygamous home in Nigeria—exploring the intersections of race, gender, and the politics of sexuality under patriarchal systems.
