These films went on to win numerous awards, including the Durban Film Festival and the Banff World Television Awards.
In 2009, we launched the campaign '6 Weeks of Values in Action'. Our flagship was the series and later on the film Hopeville, which won many awards including a Rose’ Dor, two SAFTA awards and an international Emmy nomination.
