Three lucky kids from Thokoza will soon be winging their way to Portugal to represent South Africa as part of the CinemaTAKE filmmaking project.
This week's episode finds Gino chatting to Emilie Demon and Mpumi Mcata (BLK JKS) from Cinema TAKE, an association born out of the friendship of film lover Emilie Demon and Muriel Huet, a presenter at the BFI (British Film Institute), among many other jobs, along with film director Mpumelelo Mcata.
The association’s main objective is to bring cinema to the people of inner-city Johannesburg and to experience it differently: not just as a form of art, but also as an educational tool. Cinema TAKE (The Alternative Kinetic Experience) is where people can engage with films that may not otherwise be shown in mainstream cinemas.
"This opportunity that CinemaTAKE has to work on film making and education, with the young people at Of Soul & Joy photography school in the Thokoza township of Johannesburg is beyond a dream come true and in some ways more than what any of us could have imagined. As we teach, we learn and grow, all together."
Created in 1995, Cinema Cent Ans De Jeunesse offers an educational experiment with cinema. Each year participants set up training groups in schools and extracurricular environments where young people get the chance to work with cinema practitioners on a regular basis. The young students then get to show their work at a dedicated film festival in competition.
"We are so excited to be the first African country to present the final filmic results of what has already been an incredible workshops experience and cinematic process for us, the guest lecturers and the absolutely brilliant kids, at the legendary Cinema Cent Ans De Jeunesse in Lisbon 2024."
