STERKINEKOR ZIMBABWE & ZAMBIA
28 NOVEMBER 2025

What do you get when you cross a toxic frenemy, a high-stakes business competition, and a church heist? A laugh-out-loud, fiercely female-led Zimbabwean-South African film that's about to flip the local cinema scene.

Get ready for LOVED OUT, the genre-busting new film written, directed, and produced by Zimbabwean-South African creative powerhouse Tendayi Nyeke. This vibrant, fearless, and fabulously unfiltered dramedy premieres digitally and on at Ster-Kinekor in Zambia and Zimbabwe on the 28th November 2025.
