In a statement from the school, Maumela shared “I love acting and filmmaking. As an actress on a poplar soapie Muvhango, I would always get asked by youngsters how I got into acting. Even though I loved sharing my story, I just always thought it was not enough. I wanted to contribute more than just my story. A film school was a natural choice. Now I share skills and techniques I have learnt throughout the years in a formal setting. It is super amazing.”

The African Academy of Cinematic Arts graduation ceremony will take place on 5 April at Numetro VIP Cinema Hyde Park.

It’s graduation day for Maumela Mahuwa’s film school. Congratulations!
