The Cape Town Film Fund has been launched during FAME Week Africa, with the aim of supporting film and media projects that promote economic growth and employment. The fund covers a wide range of genres and has a temporary advisory board to assess funding applications. The initiative is committed to promoting diversity, inclusivity, and nurturing budding talents through training and skills development programs. FAME Week Africa and the Cape Town Film Fund collectively sketch an optimistic future for the African film industry, with Cape Town emerging as a champion of local talent.
