About SGBV: Why This Story Matters
SGBV is more than a film, it is a mirror held up to the lived experiences of survivors of sexual and gender-based violence in our communities. Drawing from real stories and lived realities, it confronts the silence, stigma, and complacency that often protect abuse.
Through bold storytelling, Mbogiwood uses cinema as a space for empathy, conversation, and collective responsibility. The film honours survivors, challenges harmful norms, and reminds us that everyone has a role in creating safer spaces.
This premiere is not just a screening, it’s a moment to gather, reflect, and commit to action against SGBV within our homes, schools, workplaces, and creative spaces.
The intention
Mbogiwood is using its platform to spark honest conversations around SGBV — not from a distance, but from within the stories we tell, the characters we build, and the communities we belong to.
Come ready to watch, listen, feel, and question. The impact begins with being present.
