The Kalasha International Film and TV festival came to end. AFRICA24 MEDIA in collaboration with CCTV NEWS scooped the Best TV documentary with the life of Unity Dow. "The Unity Dow Story" is an inspiring film about a former high court judge of Botswana, human rights activist, writer and politician. In 1992, she began what one would call the battle of the titans against the government. She challenged the attorney general on the clause in their law that stated dual citizenship was only earned from the father. Dow became the plaintiff seeking to allow children of the Botswana women married to foreigners become Batswana.
AFRICA24 dominated the competition for Best TV Documentary, claiming 4 of the 5 finalist slots, all for programs made in collaboration with CCTV.

They included:

- Kwame Nkrumah: A Story of Vision and Tragedy
- The Unity Dow Story
- Mpule: Beauty and Brains
- Sankara's Ghost

The Kalasha Awards is a premier event organized to celebrate and recognize excellence in production of local Kenyan movies and stars. This is a massive platform for the arts and culture.
