right. from zambia was one of eight winners of that initiative the series is designed by. malcolm will be. to talk a bit more about this story i'm joined by one that you believe was looked a bit closer into this story but why is netflix now producing local content in africa well it's becoming hard to compete on the african market without producing a local content i mean i was in zambia at the end of last year and it's just amazing to see how many local productions they are on t.v. there and you know one of the most popular shows was called and that's what my family was talking about the whole time my sister was watching it every day so local soap and without local boards action it's become extremely difficult to you know penetrate the african markets over course and you know nigeria has nollywood in kenya those local productions in uganda south africa has always had a local strong production in terms of you know entertain and what does it mean for
