Rien D'autre

This channel is an impressive repository of Zimbabwean arts and culture. If we had a national film archive, I would strongly recommend that these films be preserved for all eternity there, for the benefit of posterity. The content here is a deep dive into into the often unacknowledged parts of our cultural existence. Thank you for this. I lack the words to full express my gratitude for your efforts. I suppose this is what Stendhal syndrome feels like...
