“3 Cold Dishes” is part of a diverse lineup of projects Black Mic Mac is currently developing, including titles like “The Devil Inside,” “The Three Rascals,” “Apophenia,” “La Sape,” “The Great Transporter,” “The Cage,” and “Let The Earth Burn.”

Founder of Black Mic Mac, Pape Boye, expressed pride in collaborating with filmmakers across the continent and in discovering new talents dedicated to captivating global audiences, positioning the company as a significant force in the African film and television industry.
