ZIFF 10th July Press Release - Films and Football!




FILMS

Ndoto ya Zanzibar (Premiere)

Simai Mohammed Said

11th July – 19:15-19:40 in the Old Fort

 

To many around the world, Zanzibar is an exotic and spice island, but for the people of Zanzibar both young and old…football is a way of life!

 

This documentary is dedicated to the people of Zanzibar who dream that one day, Zanzibar will contest for the FIFA world cup tournament.

 

Themba

Director - Stefanie Sycholt

11th July – 19:40-21:00 in the Old Fort

 

A beautiful film about the way sport gives hope, joy, and strength to the South African youth, and for many is the only way to forget about the hardships of life, if only for a few moments, while chasing the ball on the pitch.

 

"We want to welcome the whole world to the football World Cup 2010, but we also want to be honest with our successes as with out challenges and problems.

The movie Themba can play an important role here. I wish this film project – that will be realised in cooperation with local people in the Eastern Cape and the township of Masiphumelele near Cape Town – all possible success."
Desmond M Tutu Archbishop Emeritus

 

FOOTBALL

ZIFF will be screening the World Cup Final and throwing the after-party of the year with ZIFF DJs rocking the house!
