FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

'Baxu and the Giants' available to stream globally

Multiple award winning Namibian short film Baxu and the Giants, telling the story of how Rhino poaching triggers social change in rural Namibia, seen through the eyes of a nine year old girl, will be available globally to stream and download for free starting this weekend.

Baxu and the Giants was commissioned by the Legal Assistance Centre with the aim of sensitising teenagers to the issue of poaching in Namibia. Producer Andrew Botelle ('The Power Stone', 'Born in Etosha') enlisted Director and Co-Writer Florian Schott ('Katutura') and Co-Producer/Co-Writer Girley Jazama ('The White Line') to craft an emotional story out of this difficult issue.

Over the last six months, Baxu and the Giants screened in ten countries around the world, at over 20 Film Festivals and won multiple international Awards, including the Award for Best Foreign Narrative at the San Francisco Independent Short Film Festival, three Namibian Theatre- and Film Awards (including Best Female Actor for 10 year old Camilla Jo-Ann Daries), two international Cinematography Awards and two Awards at the Knysna Film Festival in South Africa.
Just in the last few weeks Florian Schott presented the film to over 500 school children in Los Angeles as part of the Pan African Film Festival and at the RapidLion Film Festival in Johannesburg, where the film was also nominated for ‘Best Humanitarian Film’.

In addition to that the Legal Assistance started showing the film to thousands of learners all across Namibia and MaMoKoBo Video & Research is busy bringing the film to all corners of Namibia via mobile screenings, in partnership with the Save the Rhino Trust and the Ministry of Environment & Tourism.

Baxu and the Giants will be available to stream on the official website baxuandthegiants.com as well as on YouTube and Vimeo from the 20th of March.

Please follow the film on Facebook (facebook.com/baxuandthegiants) and Instagram (@baxuandthegiants) for more information on the screenings and global release.
