This approach ensures that films and video content are appropriately categorised for diverse audiences. “All this would not have been possible without the support of the staff and management. Therefore, I would like to acknowledge our team’s hard work and dedication at the NFVCB and appreciate the support of our partners and stakeholders, without whom this event would not have been possible.”Mr Husseini appreciated Minister Musawa’s unwavering support and visionary leadership of the creative sector and the NFVCB.
