Jacob Burns Film Center's African Film Festival

The infiltration of Western culture, tribal conflicts, and the day-to-day struggle to survive are just some of the challenges facing Africa and its filmmakers today. The exciting, funny, and deeply moving films featured here provide an invaluable - and unique - inside look at the hearts and minds of peoples about whom we know far too little.
