CINÉMA AFRICAIN!: Exploring Feminism, Identity, and the Future of Film
The first CINÉMA AFRICAIN! took place from October 23 to 26 across various venues in Linz. This new film festival brought Africa’s energy and creativity to the forefront through groundbreaking films from Africa and its diaspora. The event challenged stereotypes and fostered deeper understanding of African realities and their global impact.
The program showcased intimate portraits, socially critical documentaries, and narratives tackling mythology, identity, colonialism, feminism, and coming-of-age—all with a focus on women’s* perspectives. Beyond screenings, the festival offered engaging events like Q&A sessions, masterclasses, panel discussions, and more.
