Last year, the San Sebastian International Film Festival launched
Cinema in Motion, a yearly professional rendezvous
for filmmakers from the Maghreb and Portuguese-speaking African
countries.
This initiative was created in collaboration
with two European festivals: Amiens (France) and Fribourg (Switzerland),
which have a long-standing tradition of contributing efficient
aid to filmmakers from these countries and of forging new international
paths for their projects.
The young African Cinema Festival of Tarifa
joins Cinema in Movement with a travelling yearly programme
endeavouring to contribute to the regular circulation in South
America and Spain of films from the Maghreb and Portuguese-speaking
African countries.
The programme will consist of films by directors
of projects presented in Cinema in Motion at the San Sebastian
Festival.
The screenings at the Bogota, Mexico and Buenos
Aires film archives will be attended by selected African filmmakers
and professionals from the sector in each capital, with the
intention of facilitating contacts and making known in these
countries a kind of cinema virtually non-existent in commercial
film theatres.
The aim of these efforts is to make film lovers,
critics and professionals familiar with the work and names of
the directors participating in Cinema in Motion,
while they wait to conclude new projects, by laying the way
for distributors to take up the initiative in the best of conditions.
The African Cinema Festival is moreover preparing
a digital catalogue of African films subtitled in Spanish for
non-commercial distribution throughout Spain.
