The impulse for this form of television in South Africa arose from a desire to overcome the divisions and imbalances in broadcasting resulting from apartheid. An important conference held in the Netherlands in 1991 saw a broad range of NGOs and Community Groups resolve that the full diversity of the country should be expressed in its broadcasting. Subsequently, community television was introduced to South Africa by legislation known as the Independent Broadcasting Authority Act of 1993.

These films contained news, interviews and documentary items, and were viewed by millions of viewers, with the cost of production amounting to thousands of rands. The opposition, in principle, did not disapprove of these films, but raised questions about the government's argument.
