Arusha African Film Festival

ARUSHA AFRICAN FILM FESTIVAL (AAFF) 2016 @ ST. JOHN'S, ANTIGUA and BARBUDA The AAFF is on a World Tour and will take place in St. John's in the beautiful, twin-island nation of Antigua and Barbuda from October 1 - 8, 2016. The Arusha African Film Festival (AAFF) is an international platform for the exhibition and celebration of films by filmmakers from around the world whose works are Africa-centric. AAFF is a global traveling festival, promoting the understanding of Africa through film in all the regions of the world. AAFF is an eclectic, Africa-worldly cinematic niche that serves as a creative universe for the awakening of the African chi, memory, counter-memory, remembrance, and the symbiotic representations of our collective unconscious. These sensibilities are richly explored in the films we screen. AAFF is also a forum for film education, production, distribution, marketing and networking. The festival brings from around the world, filmmakers, actors, producers, commissioning editors, distributors, scholars, poets, performing artists, cinema enthusiasts, students, and the public together for the common purpose of understanding Africa through film.
