We are going to make a MOVIE ! Domestic Violence is a CRIME. The Movie will highlight the Laws and Rights of victims, and how to get the law enforced and demand your rights are protected. Our first hand experience of Domestic Violence and Assault has shown us that we don't know how to get the law to protect ourselves, and neither do the authorities. We need to act now. Education of people before and after they become victims is paramount. We also want to educate the perpetrators that they WILL be brought to book, the first time, before somebody Dies. Any assistance from interested parties will be welcomed.

It is indeed a thorny issue currently and does need to be addressed, I would like to be involved on the production side.
Good day John I'm glad that you are interested in highlighting the issue of domestic violence in SA. In terms of the type of material that you are looking at, do you have a script in mind or are you looking for scripts from interested parties? And then, in terms of genre, are you looking for a documentary that goes into the legal issues regarding reporting cases of domestic violence, or for fictionalised looks at the scourge? Regards, David
Hi David. I'm not a movie maker, that's why in liking for everybody. I'm a cinema maker. I have a project where we are rolling out 1200 sixty seat cinemas in townships all over South Africa. We are going to screen all sorts of films and documentaries and training movies, and having a daughter beaten up by a scumbag, got me involved in domestic violence. The Movie just needs to be made, or possibly a couple. There is a desperate need for education and awareness on the subject. You guys make the movies, I'll get them to the audiences, in particular, the 40 million people in the townships and rural areas.
