Zimbabwe has an active film culture that includes films made in Zimbabwe during its pre- and post-colonial periods. Economic crisis and political crisis have been features of the industry.[1] A publication from the 1980s counted 14 cinemas in Zimbabwe's capital city, Harare.[2] According to a 1998 report only 15 percent of the population had been to a cinema.[3] European and American films have been made on location in Zimbabwe as well as Indian films. American films are popular in Zimbabwe but face restrictions limiting their distribution.[4]
