Rustenburg film festival (RFF) is Rustenburg's signature film event operated by Rustenburg Film Festival (NPC), a Non-Profit Company registered in terms of the Companies Act 71 of 2008 of South Africa, with Reg No. 2014/137852/08. Rustenburg is a major city of the North West province in South Africa. The Festival has ran for 5 years under the name "Bojanala Film Week" but was in 2020 renamed to Rustenburg Film Festival. It has provided filmmaking skills to a myriad of filmmakers across the province in the form of film workshops, and most of these filmmakers are now independent filmmakers producing films for various exhibition platforms.
