Afrika Eye Nov 2022
Afrika Eye at Trinity
South West of England’s biggest celebration of African cinema and culture - Afrika Eye - has been going for sixteen years and this year presents an 11-day programme between 7 - 17 November.
The festival will feature new and classic films, street art, spoken word, dance, music, food and photography at city-wide venues including Trinity. As part of the festival, we will be hosting More Than A Number - an exceptional and thought-provoking exhibition from photographers across Africa caught between modernity and tradition, curated by Cynthia Sitei.
As part of the exhibition, there will also be a symposium on the 15th, followed by an evening of music and a film screening of Casablanca Beats directed by Nabil Ayouch (Certificate - 12).
We are proud to have hosted events as part of the festival and have been working with Afrika Eye to screen films and deliver workshops since 2015.
Past festival highlights from Afrika Eye @Trinity (pictured below) include:
Kure Kure in 2019 - workshop with Anna Mudeka, taking participants on a journey through the ancestral mbira music of Zimbabwe and bringing the Shona-Bira experience to life.
Amazina in 2017 - film screening, Q&A and participatory dance workshop What Happens When with Rachael Nanyonjo.
