Film Africa 2011
A Royal African Society event, in association with SOAS, Film Africa 2011 is a ten-day annual celebration cinema and culture. Hosted at the brand new Hackney Picturehouse, it is also taking place at four other London venues – The Ritzy in Brixton, the Rich Mix in Shoreditch, Screen on the Green in Islington, and the Frontline Club in Paddington.
We have hand-picked the best African fiction, documentary, short, and experimental films for you to sample, and have complemented the screenings with a line-up of exciting Q&As with filmmakers and actors, panel discussions with experts to contextualise issues presented in the films, live music to celebrate Africa’s diverse artistic talents, and professional workshops
