THE much hyped and publicised film, Sinners, is set to be showcased on the big screen in the country before it goes regional and international. The film which premiered last month, received rave reviews across the board and left many people spellbound with its language.
It has been described as a first of its kind in an industry that most critics say is dominated by predictable storylines.
Executive producer of the film Daves Guzha said the film is set for the Rainbow Cinema starting this week.
“We have decided to take the film to Rainbow Cinema as another step in exposing the film to the market. The Bulawayo Rainbow Cinema is also expected to receive this film before it goes regional and international,” said Guzha.
The film is already circulating in the market on DVD. The veteran producer said they were working ways to make the film reach a far and wider audience.
Guzha said the film will be showcased at festivals around the world and those in the Diaspora will also get a chance to reunite with their stories as well as their actors and actresses on the big screen.
Sinners is a film about three ladies who have been in prostitution for quite some time but with little to show for their long stay in the business.
Faced with this predicament coupled with shaky and controversial backgrounds, one of them finds a breakthrough elsewhere.
Bulawayo actress Sarah Mpofu-Sibanda plays the character Kere in the film together with Eunice Tava, Tapiwe Mavindidze, and Getrude Munhamo. The four are ordinary women struggling with everyday problems but at night parade in the streets selling their bodies.
Chipo, one of the prostitutes whose marriage had irretrievably broken down, meets her evasive aunt, Aunty Vero. Aunty Vero recruits her and two others into a more lucrative and rewarding business that of raping men and collecting their semen.
Aunty Vero equips her recruits with the necessary apparatus for the job at hand. The highway rampage that the three ladies embark on proves to be successful but turns out to be a disaster in the end.
