Thank you for being Shorts Block gathers four intimate portraits that honour lives shaped by resilience, care, and self-expression. In Dear Sikhonkwane (Dir. Sihle Hlophe), the legacy of a pioneering SiSwati author lives on through language, memory, and those he inspired. One Last Order (Dirs. Lauren De Filippo & Sam Soko) captures a final day of work transformed into a collective act of gratitude and community. Just Because I'm a Street Kid (Dir. Faith Riyano) introduces a young poet whose words reframe life on the margins, while INYEMBEZI ZENDODA (Dir. Mandlakazi Zilwa) reflects on masculinity, trauma, and healing through artistic expression. Together, these films offer a moving tribute to the quiet strength of being seen, heard, and remembered.
