Biography

Seko Shamte is a producer and filmmaker who is working to put Tanzanian cinema on the map.

She's directed numerous films and documentaries including the popular web series, "The A-Team Tanzania", and a cooking show entitled "Jikoni na Marion". Her first feature film, "Homecoming" (2016) is a coming of age story which explores Tanzanian identity and values.
