Transforming the documentary landscape

To our sponsors, partners, filmmakers, friends and critics, we thank you for your long-standing support. Together we have transformed the documentary landscape in South Africa. Without you, we wouldn’t have made it this far!

Through your generous support, Encounters continues to grow exponentially. Our audience profile now includes business leaders, activists, ambassadors and foreign cultural representatives, and the film industry we’re focused on developing.

Because of you, we have:

Film Labs

Workshops

Documentaries

…made the best documentaries from around the world available to all South Africans.
