In light of Women’s Day, the CFC will be supporting Women in Film and Television (WIFTSA) in a networking function to be held on 30 August 2007. The function will also serve as a special premiere screening of the recent South Africa-Canada co-production, “The World Unseen”.
This follows its recent selection to premiere at the prestigious Toronto International Film Festival taking place from 6 to 15 August. The festival will not only be host to the world premiere, but will also recognise the success of the South African/Canadian co-production treaty.
The treaty which was signed in 1997 has seen numerous successes through this collaboration, with one of the first major success being the 22 part sci-fi series Charlie Jade which received good reviews in Canada, numerous European countries and the U.S.
