Zimbabweans Push for Return of Mobile Cinemas in Rural Areas

In Zimbabwe, residents of several rural districts in the region of Mashonaland East are calling for the return of mobile cinemas. Rural inhabitants rejected the service nearly three decades ago, when authorities used the films to spread their propaganda. But some farmers now suggest mobile cinemas should be reinstituted, and air educational messages that would encourage local development. Voice of America English to Africa Service reporter Safari Njema visited the area.
