On Friday 21 May DStv launches a 10-day AfroCinema channel to mark Africa Day on Tuesday 25 May.
It's popping-up on Channel 198 until Sunday 30 May and it's a generous pop instead of the usual stinge-fest because it will be available on Premium, Compact Plus, Compact, Family and Access.
The films will also be on Catch Up until Wednesday 30 June.
The theme: a celebration of African film across the continent.
Here's a close-up on eight of the titles:
