Director Batandwa Alperstein takes the road less travelled in new campaign for SANRAL
The latest campaign for SANRAL is an honest and emotive piece of cinematic storytelling that sees director Batandwa Alperstein beautifully capture human connection. In a departure from the usual road safety campaigns which often use shock tactics to communicate, Batandwa has taken the opportunity to instead show the brand’s humanity by reminding us of what really matters – who the roads lead us to.
Girls in Film RSA and Blackboard are on a mission to get girls into filmmaking
‘The film industry is desperate for fresh voices. But there are so many barriers in place that don’t allow women, non-binary creatives and people of colour to thrive in the industry. Blackboard and Girls In Film are working together to address this from different angles. We are committed to making the art of filmmaking accessible to the most under-represented communities in South Africa. Change can’t happen overnight but we won’t stop until it does.’
