Filmmaker, Kenya
Forever grateful to Docubox for believing in me and in my stories. I have been able to learn and sharpen my skills as a filmmaker. Docubox is a community with sheer will to share great impactful stories by us and for us as Africans for a wider audience.

The experience of Docubox and its success are a true inspiration for all supporting emerging documentary filmmakers across the African continent. We are very happy that soon the “Moroccan Stories” will join and meet the “Kenyan Stories” on the screens!
Documentary filmmaker, South Africa
A generation of African filmmakers and producers have emerged over the last decade thanks to the tireless work of Docubox, proving that a homegrown cinema can connect authentically with audiences. Bravo to Docubox!
Filmmaker, Kenya
Docubox is constantly enabling crucial work to get made. Veteran and newcomer Kenyan filmmakers are telling brave, incisive stories that are finding audiences here and abroad, thanks to Docubox’s small but powerful team of staff.
Filmmaker, Kenya
Docubox made me a ‘real’ screenwriter and I’m especially grateful that the atmosphere at Docubox enabled me to try directing and risk failure. I can’t overstate how rich a network they also opened up for me. Shukran tu sana.
Emmy Award winning Documentary Film Director, and Producer
Docubox appears to have played a leading role in the fast-growing presence not only of Kenyan but of African documentary as whole on the international stage, and I am proud to be associated with them.
