Tebogo Malebogo is a South African film director and screenwriter drawn to collaborative, research-based storytelling. His work imagines narratives and perspectives rarely seen in cinema, exploring contemporary urban tensions, queer discovery, and overlooked histories—both personal and archaeological.

He is currently developing his debut feature, which explores street casting, fake miracles, and urban myth-making in modern South Africa. The project was presented at Cannes Film Festival’s Marché du Film and received the SFFILM Rainin Grant for Screenwriting.

Tebogo’s films have screened at Locarno Film Festival, New York Film Festival, New Directors/New Films, Blackstar Film Festival, SXSW, Clermont-Ferrand, Durban Int’l Film Festival, and AFI Fest. His works have been programmed on Le Cinéma Club, Topic, Vimeo Staff Picks, and MUBI.

He has been supported by BAFTA, Berlinale Talents, The New York Foundation for the Arts, Blacktag, and initiatives at New York University where he received a scholarship to study in the Graduate Film Program.
