‘Zambezi Magic hungry for local content’

ZAMBEZI Magic channel boss Addiel Dzinoreva has urged Zimbabwean filmmakers to produce films that tell their own stories and address issues that are uniquely Zimbabwean.

Zambezi Magic channel was launched by DStv last month for southern African viewers and is sourcing content from Africa, particularly southern African countries such as Zimbabwe and Zambia.

Speaking during a recent workshop organised by the Zimbabwe international Film Festival Trust, Dzinoreva said their desire was to make Zambezi Magic a “hyper local channel that speaks to Zimbabweans”.
