AFRICAN MOVIE ACADEMY AWARDS HONOURS MANDELA

AMAA
Change is one thing that remains constant. Just as the world mourn the passing of great African leader, Nelson Mandela, the 2014 Africa Movie Academy Awards (AMAA) will take a new shape with different changes made including the addition and removal of some categories.
Speaking at a recent meeting held in Durban, South Africa, Journalist/Film Critic June Givanni revealed the new decisions taken by the jury towards delivering a better 10th edition.

Nelson Mandela

We gathered that organisers are introducing an award named after late South African president, Nelson Mandela ‘Madiba Africa Vision Awards’ (MAVA) to be received by any film that captures the essence and vision of the category.
I think I know the movie that will clinch this category; I guess some of you know too.

A new category ‘Best Director First Feature Film’ has also been introduced to encourage young and upcoming film directors to continue to strive for excellence and best practices.
