As it stands AfryKamera is the first African Film Festival in Central and Eastern Europe as well as the largest African-themed event in Poland and the wider region.
Black Star
A poetic film on the afterlife Kati Kati (dir. Mbithi Masya) and other achievements of African cinematography form part of the 12th Festival of African Films AfryKamera (22-27 May) at Pod Baranami Cinema. The programme features films showcasing the diversity and contradiction of the continent: on one hand all too familiar for bloody dictatorships and racial conflicts, and on the other home to laureates of the Nobel Peace Prize. One of the sections of this year’s festival pays homage to one of Africa’s strongest democracies: Ghana. Don’t forget that the films shown during the festival won’t be released in Poland, so it’s your only opportunity to see them!
