Within the program of Turkish African Movie Screening in South Africa, the Yunus Emre Institute in Johannesburg brings together cinema lovers at the cultural center to witness great masterpieces of Turkish cinema which is supported by the Ministry of Culture. South Africans are affectionate to Turkish cinema, thus influencing the learning of Turkish culture and art.

Turkish films such as "My Father and Son", "Long Story", "Loves Like Coincidences" and "120" are presented to South African film lovers. Such activities contribute to the cultural and art relations between Turkish and South African societies, which aims to get to know one another as well as practicing the Turkish language.
