Vuta N’Kuvute | 2021

Reviews.
“One of the features I appreciated the most about T-Junction is its brilliant structure, which is both traditional and modern at the same time. The story-telling format and a side-by-side story-line is both in synch with the founding ideals of Kijiweni and echoes the oral story-telling tradition not exclusive to Tanzania.”
— Marta Tveit for Africasacountry
“Quietly subversive in a way that does not draw too much attention either to the animation or the story, and totally effective in terms of the messaging, Mozizi was a hit at the just concluded Zanzibar International Film Festival (ZIFF) where it won the coveted Sembène Ousmane prize.”
- Wilfred Okiche for YNaija.com
“LAKINI! Si burudani tuu iliyokosha nyoyo za hadhira. La hasha! Burudani ilikuwa ni kibwagizo na kiungo muhimu cha kuwasilisha JUMBE (maudhui) zilizomo katika filamu.”
— Jasper Kido
“Amil is an excellent storyteller and his political philosophy is never very far from the surface. He sees a country that is struggling with corruption, and one that is stridently nepotic and wishes to speak to the younger generation warning them of its aftereffects.”
— Moyo wa Simba
