Its true that bad news sell faster than good news. This is good story, but all morons are only commenting on bad and irrelevant stories.By end of the day, there will be no more than 30 comments.

@ sabza007.

You're right, I haven't seen this on any other news site yet. It's time that we celebrated our successes. What about SA winning the bid for the SKA project? That hardly got a mention because of all the noise over that painting.

'Pologies sabza007 and Pomy but...


A documentary? Brooklyn Film Festival?? influence on the international movie market ???

I know we need postive news in this era of corrupt clowns managing the affairs of our country but doncha think this is reaching a little too deep into the barrel.

No insults meant to Sleeping Giant and Fireworx Media, of course. but it ain't hardly a world shattering event and, realistically, it ain't gonna matter one damn to the international movie market!
