Adrian Madikisa
Cape Town-based filmmaker with a deep passion for documentary filmmaking. He currently works in the film industry as a second camera assistant.

Being able to see someone else’s reality is one of the greatest means to foster understanding and tolerance, and to appreciate the beauty of our diversity.

Adrian is also one of the co-founders of Pursuit of Humanity is a film collective that used mixed media as a tool for social good by highlighting social inequality, injustices and the plight of ordinary, unseen individuals. Adrian also had the opportunity to work on international film sets in Morocco. And has experience working on projects in Germany with the theme of youth employability.
