DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE:  AT CINEMAS, IN 3D, IMAX AND 4DX

The third instalment in the R-rated blockbuster Deadpool series has Wolverine joining in on the comedy action. Director Shawn Levy (Night at the Museum series, Free Guy) orchestrates Woverine’s (Hugh Jackman) meeting  with Deadpool (Ryan Reynolds) at a time when  Wolverine is recovering from injuries, and his misfortunes only escalate. The two heroes must put aside their hilarious differences to defeat a common enemy. With the film garnering rave reviews following premieres around the world, don’t miss Spotlight’s coverage of the SA red-carpet event.

 

AFRICAN ART SPACES

Spaces Africa, in collaboration with SA Creatives, brings an exciting, multi-sensory exhibition to art lovers in SA. Honouring diverse contemporary artists across Africa, ranging from art illustration, visual installations and street art to music, it is curated by artists for artists and fans.  Spotlight attended the opening to showcase the inspiration and beauty of this collaboration. More information is available on SACREATIVES on Instagram.

 

POWER OF WORDS SHORT FILMS – STREAMING ON VIVA NATION TV

With Nelson Mandela’s birthday last week, an initiative to honour the icon who captivated the world has been made available in this five-part short doccie series.  Each film embodies a famous quote from Madiba, bringing together five filmmakers who have interpreted a quote from him in their own way.  The result is a combination of diverse narratives with Madiba’s wisdom at their centre, seen through a cinematic lens.
