Matamba Filmlabs For Women – Empowering the next generation of new media storytellers

Empowering the next generation

Of New Media Storytellers

Matamba Film Labs for Women stands as a beacon of empowerment in the realm of new media storytelling, dedicated to nurturing the voices of the next generation of female storytellers with authentic Zimbabwean and African perspectives. Since our inception, we have remained steadfast in our mission to provide a nurturing environment for women to develop their skills in VR/AR/XR and animation, free from exploitation.

The name “Matamba” carries profound symbolism, derived from the Shona acronym for the monkey orange fruit, known for its exquisite aroma and resilience in harsh climatic conditions. It will only ripen once good rains have been experienced. Just like the Matamba fruit, our creative women require the right conditions to thrive. Unfortunately, many face marginalization and lack access to resources, including something as fundamental as a computer. At Matamba, we are committed to bridging this gap and introducing innovative approaches to storytelling.
