Mza’Taal celebrates the power of language rooted in place. Dedicated to vernacular storytelling, this category honours work that speaks authentically to South African audiences in their own voices. Entries must be primarily in vernacular (with English subtitles/translations) and highlight culturally resonant storytelling, creativity, and authentic connection with local audiences. This category is media agnostic, as long as non-English local language is used in this campaign.
