Africa at the Pictures exists to promote and further enhance the exhibition and distribution of African cinema in the UK and elsewhere in Europe. Established in 1991 Africa at the Pictures also provides a platform for the discussion of African cinema with African filmmakers and within the framework of Africa 2005 we are proud to announce a diverse programme in partnership with the British Film Institute, the Barbican, the Peckham Multiplex, Channel 4 Television and the London Film School. These venues will host a diverse program of screenings retrospectives and workshops on current practices in African filmmaking.
