Films

Films in this festival represent the range of different countries, cultures, and lifestyles, as well as settings from pre-colonial, modern times, rural, and urban spaces. The hope is that through our annual film series, we encourage American viewers to become interested and enrich their lens of African cultures.

We encourage attending our screenings listed below in-person. For those who are unable to view live screenings, view our free additional virtual curated list of film selections. Learn about viewing our virtual program online.
