🌍 African cinema is on the rise...but access is still the challenge.
We loved contributing to @okayafrica ’s feature by @paula.adhis on building better distribution pathways for African films.
📺 From festivals and local screens to classrooms and communities, it’s all about making sure stories reach the audiences who need them most.

On April 21, in #AddisAbaba, #Ethiopia, we came together for Voices Of Sudan 🇸🇩.
A powerful evening of art, film, music, and community, marking the third anniversary of the #Sudan war.
Organized by In Deep Visions, In Deep Cultures (Sudan), 1960 Films, and Addis Cinema Club (Ethiopia). The night brought people together in reflection and solidarity.
The evening opened with a moving live performance by The Tana Quintet, led by @hazim_alshafei Hazim Elshafei and @hermela_birhanuu Hermela Birhanuu filling the space with rhythm, soul, and the enduring spirit of Sudan. This was followed by a screening of the acclaimed film #Khartoum, alongside an art exhibition by @shangal_hassan_ Dr. Shangal Hassan.
A powerful atmosphere. A night that will stay with us.
Thank you to everyone who showed up, stood together, and made this moment meaningful.

في ٢١ أبريل، في #أديس_أبابا – إثيوبيا، تجمعّنا في فعالية “أصوات السودان” 🇸🇩، لإحياء الذكرى الثالثة لحرب السودان، في ليلة مميزة جمعت بين التشكيل والسينما والموسيقى وروح التضامن.
نُظمت الفعالية من قبل In Deep Visions وIn Deep Cultures (السودان) و1960 Films وAddis Cinema Club (اثيوبيا)، حيث شكّلت مساحة للالتقاء والتأمل.
افتُتحت الأمسية بعرض حيّ مؤثر لفرقة تانا كوينتيت بقيادة حازم الشافعي وهيرميلا بيرهانو، حيث ملأت المكان بإيقاعاتها وروح السودان. تلا ذلك عرض الفيلم المميز الخرطوم”، إلى جانب معرض فني للدكتور شنغل حسن.
أجواء مؤثرة ليلة تبقى محفورة في الذاكرة.
شكرًا لكل من حضر، وتضامن، وساهم في جعل هذه اللحظة ذات معنى.

Thank you, Machakos! 🫶🏾
Sunday was so lively and fun. It was amazing to see families, children, and young people fill up the Machakos Social Hall for our screening of @supamodofilm@deejayjeorges delivered on the decks, and the reaction to the film was priceless. Seeing a Kenyan classic still bring out so much emotion and engagement from a local crowd is exactly why we started CinemaWave Africa.
Our goal is to bring our stories back to the audiences they were meant for, especially in communities that typically don’t have cinema infrastructure. The energy in Machakos was a huge encouragement for us to keep moving!
