South African Great Movies Production (SAGMP Films), a production company and an unidentified American partner, are searching for local film makers to crack it, when coming to distribution internationally.
The deal includes a cinema test for a week, and if the film is successful it will be released nationally. The criterion is that the film should have been released in SA cinemas.
“Our local filmmakers, including myself, continue to struggle with attaining distribution for our films.
Distribution continues to be one of the biggest challenges hindering the growth of filmmaking business; consequently following my discussions with my partner, we decided that this growing gap needs to be addressed.
With this new deal, we aim to ensure that quality South African films, that would normally not travel the world be seen beyond our shores,” says John Wani, South African based filmmaker and Great Movies Production Films owner.
SAGMP has offices in Pretoria with partners in Nigeria, Ghana, DRC, Rwanda, Kenya, Canada and USA.
Producers who wish to take this opportunity are requested to upload their films on vimeo.com for consideration.
