Premieres

for four consecutive days in the evenings from Wednesday through to Friday for the working crowd and a 3pm afternoon screening on Saturday for those who prefer daytime events.

“People who saw the movie kept asking for more, so we decided to screen it a few more times. There are also several other people who didn’t get the chance to watch it for various reasons, which is why we are going with multiple screenings at different times,” said Elliot Moyo the co-producer of the movie.

To make these screenings all the more special, the producers have made certain that the cast and crew will also be present so those in attendance can experience something similar to the premiere albeit on a much more intimate level.

It comes as no surprise that The Lost Letter would be in such high demand, after the bodacious entrance it made into the film industry last weekend.

Complete with a red carpet, flashing lights, cameras, fashion, meet and greets and interviews with the stars of the movie, as well as the guests and socialites, it was a film event of a magnitude rarely seen in Bulawayo.

The movie itself was as addictive as they come with dramatic twists and turns, which kept everyone on the edge of their seats.

“The acting in the movie was some of the best seen locally with Nama nominated actress Donna N putting on one of her best performances yet as Sara. She seemed to fit right into the role of the young wife torn between her new life and the life she could have had,” said Mhle.

On the experience of playing the role of Sara, Donna N said: “It was a very interesting and challenging role because Sara’s character was so different from mine and I had to understand everything about her in order to become her onscreen. Sara was driven by fear and doubt, both of which are qualities I don’t allow to run my life, but I had to think like her so I could sound like her.”
