Umaga, Nollywood crew shoot movie in Botswana

The movie, which is being shot on scene at Natale village, is a traditional story that showcases the Setswana culture and gives viewers a feel of local traditions. Just like the Nigerian Nollywood movies, the film is rich in native culture and language thus teaching viewers about the beautiful Tswana culture. The Tear Drainers Crew is owned by local MC, actor and film producer, Umaga.

In an interview, Umaga said a total of 35 people, inclusive of a crew and cast, have been hired. Umaga told Arts & Culture he founded the story, which was written by Ndmax and edited by Francis Nkoro. “We started shooting on Sunday in Natale village 35 kilometres from Francistown after Borolong,” he explained.
