The making of the film is also unusual, as at least 90% of the crew and cast come from the "Coloured" community of South Africa - as Grammy Award-winning Tyla describes herself.

For the world, they offer a lens into a society that has undergone a profound transformation, showcasing the resilience and creativity of its people.
Old Righteous Blues isn't just a film; it's a cultural milestone. It reminds us of the power of storytelling to unite, inspire, and transform. In a world hungry for authenticity and connection, Old Righteous Blues is a beacon, proving that South Africa's stories deserve a place on the world stage. By doing so, we not only celebrate a nation's artistry but also affirm the value of global inclusivity in storytelling
