BODIBA Anime Show: Animation in Sepedi Country
BODIBA is a children's animation festival in Moletši, Limpopo, pairing local animation with early learning, African languages, and community participation.
Field notes
The festival is organised around a deliberately small daily audience of about 50 children and 50 caregivers, with screenings supplemented by creative engagement, early-learning activities, and caregiver development tools. Its film list includes Thaba Ye, The Power of the Cell, Rapulani, and Calabashes Hughug Song, while the organisers say more local work is being sourced. The site also separates routes for ECD centres, families, animators, partners, and volunteers.
