Founded in 2014, Gambu Ntwana is a fast growing film & TV production company based in South Africa. We strive to produce content that is visually engaging and personally empowering. We select our projects carefully because we believe that purpose takes precedence over profit. We partner with ethically inclined companies, organisations and individuals to tell stories that matter – stories that inspire audiences all over the world to actively participate in positive cultural change.

The combined experience of the in-house team covers award winning TV shows, music videos, live events, and new media content. The company consists of three departments: live-action production, post-production (editorial, visual effects) and original music and sound design.
