A project of Vilole Images Productions (VIP), SHUNAFFoZ formerly known as the International Film Festival of Zambia (IFFoZ) was officially lunched on 28th October 2006 in Lusaka, to pursue a focused vision of contributing to the development of the Zambian film industry and promote the use of film as a tool for human rights and social change. It was instituted on the premise of contributing towards empowering individuals to the growth and visibility of the local film industry and celebrating the abilities of the all artists including the underprivileged through the art of film. This film festival is unique because it is biased to celebrate films about/of women, the youth and those who are underprivileged in society. Through this platform, it’s VIP’s hope is that all persons in the industry from different parts of the country and the world would come together to screen movies, network, discuss issues that matter, share and exchange information. Also sell and buy products that celebrate the theme of each year.
