EVENT SPOTLIGHT

ndim ndim cinema

Ndim Ndim Home Cinema is a BFFF initiative meant to empower township communities by bringing cinema to them. Projectors are set up in the living rooms of six homes in Langa to simultaneously screen films for guests. Screenings are followed by lively discussion and shared lunch -- bringing people together and financially empowering the hosts.
