In Ntabthemba, in the Eastern Cape, over 400 children crammed into a school gym that had been converted into a cinema for the afternoon. Nomsa, a SCORE leader from the community said, “We didn’t have enough room for everyone, and a lot of kids want to see it again. ” Watching the film on a screen that had been donated to SCORE during the 2010 FIFA World Cup™, the international award winning movie also received very positive responses from teachers. “After the film, teachers were suggesting that the film is played in each school, as they saw that it was motivating a lot of kids,” continues Nomsa.

As a supporter of the community screening initiative and part of The Themba Campaign, developed by Do Productions, SCORE integrated the film screenings with Kicking AIDS Out! activities and life skills training sessions, so that children had the chance to discuss and reflect on issues the film raised.

One participant from the Western Cape said, "I wish this movie would be played at high schools to motivate kids in our country and around the world." For more information about SCORE’s partnership with The Themba Campaign read more here.
