Homecoming: An African Christmas Story, a local production set against our picturesque landscapes in the Eastern Cape, premiered last Friday to a packed house of movie enthusiasts and strategic partners.
The red-carpet event with a Xhosa Red Carpet Glam theme was a star-studded event that highlighted the Eastern Cape government’s unwavering dedication to supporting the film industry.
The Eastern Cape Investment Film Fund’s establishment serves as a beacon, welcoming the flourishing film industry into our province.
During the filming period, this movie production had a significant influence on our province, as shown by the amazing R10 million investment that improved our local economy, created 80 jobs for our community, and benefitted 15 SMMEs.
