Jan-Willem Breure and Andrew Mahlangu Producing Nzinga (Njinga), Xuxa and Amanirena

This year, two film producers, Jan-Willem Breure and Andrew Mahlangu (and Tulsa Studios), have been making headlines for their plans to produce three feature films: Nzinga, Xuxa, and Amanirena . These films promise to be groundbreaking in their portrayal of powerful women and underrepresented communities.

Nzinga, the first film in their lineup, tells the story of Queen Nzinga, a 17th-century Angolan queen who fought against Portuguese colonization. The film will be a historical drama that explores the queen’s life and her struggles to maintain her country’s independence. Nzinga is an important historical figure in Africa and the world, and this film promises to shed light on her legacy and inspire future generations.

Xuxa is the second film in their lineup. In post-apartheid South Africa, a government team plans to target former members of the apartheid regime and political rivals in secret. Xuxa is a member until she refuses to kill a boy and becomes a target herself. While in hiding, Xuxa and the boy bond, transforming her hardened personality and helping her reconnect with her humanity.

Finally, Amanirena is the third film in their lineup and tells the story of a Nubian Queen. In 24 BC the Romans conquer Egypt. However, at the border of Egypt the Romans discover a far greater threat: the army of the Empire of Kush (aka Nubian Empire). This army is led by the Nubian Queen Amanirena..

Jan-Willem Breure and Andrew Mahlangu have a proven track record of producing high-quality films that tackle important social issues. Mahlangu has produced the award-winning film Kedibone starring Natasha Thahane and working with Paramount.

Breure and Mahlangu are committed to producing films that not only entertain but also educate and inspire. Their focus on stories that celebrate diversity and representation is especially important in today’s world, where there is a growing demand for more inclusive stories.

The Septimius Awards are the perfect platform for films such as Nzinga, Xuxa, and Amanirena. These awards celebrate the very values that Breure and Mahlangu are passionate about: diversity, inclusion, and representation. Winning a Septimius Award would be a tremendous honor for any film, and it would help to amplify the important messages that these films carry.

Breure and Mahlangu are finalizing the casting and pre-production for these three films. They are assembling a team of talented actors and crew members from around the world to bring these stories to life. The films promise to be visually stunning and emotionally powerful, and we can’t wait to see them on the big screen.

In conclusion, the Septimius Awards and Jan-Willem Breure and Andrew Mahlangu’s plans to produce Nzinga, Xuxa, and Amanirena are exciting developments in the film industry. These films promise to be important additions to the world of cinema, and we can’t wait to see how they impact audiences around the world. We wish them all the best in their endeavors and look forward to seeing them on the big screen soon.
