Since its inception 16 years ago, the Durban FilmMart Institute has been a catalyst for authentic narratives from Africa and its diaspora. We proudly celebrate the completion of 105 films or film projects nurtured through our platforms – DFM Pitch and Finance Forum, Talents Durban and JUMPSTART, respectively.

Each project represents a journey of creativity, resilience, and collaboration. While many have graced screens and festivals across the globe, all stand as powerful testaments to the strength of storytelling and the vibrancy of our global community.

This catalogue honours these projects —amplifying the voices that dare to dream and the stories that continue to inspire.
