Current African cinema

UNTIL WEDNESDAY 19/6
THE FILMTECA. Pl. town hall, 17

By Javier Estrada, curator of this cycle, the triomf at the last documentary Berlinale Dahomey of the Franco-Senegalese director Mati Diop forces us to review the cinema and history from Africa. For Estrada, African cinema "has deployed an unusual heterodoxy of tones and forms, offering some of the most surprising and profound propositions globally.” The cycle started with red beans by Narimane Mari [30/4 i 2/5] about the war in Algeria. We'll see in May Things of the aimless wanderer de Kivu Ruhorahoza [7 i 9/5], Timbuktu by Abderrahmane Sissako [8 i 11/5] on the irruption of jihadism in the area, I am not a witch de Rungano Nyoni [14 i 16/5] i A friend by Wanuri Kahiu [21 i 26/5].
