REVOLUTION - DEMOCRACY - DICTATORSHIP

2011 NORTH AFRICA has inspired this year's theme: 

Revolution, democracy, dictatorship

Right now we’re packing up a great film programme that shows how music and song as well as political events can affect democratic change.

AFRIKA EYE 2011 Fri 28 - Sun 30 OCTOBER at WATERSHED

Josephine Baker

HELLO EVERYONE!!
With festival dates now fixed, we're planning the programme. More African Diaspora films this year as well as the latest sizzlers from the continent.  Festival director Ingrid Sinclair was film maker-in-residence at the African and Diaspora Film Festival in New York and saw some new and old stunners, like the one on the left about Josephine Baker.

EYEFULL shorts competitors - get  your DVDs ready. The call will go out soon and we've already received our first entries.

We're also planning a collaboration with an African Film Festival this year - more news later.
