Africa in Motion Film Festival

This year the Africa in Motion Festival, Edinburgh, will be screening a collection of animated shorts from the Continent. These include amongst others, some shorts from the Africa Animated UNESCO project, JM Kibushi's films, and J. Trowell's Beyond Freedom. The lineup was intended to provide a diverse overview of techniques, aesthetics and narrative content, that stems from different African countries. With this in mind, one can see anything from 3D Computer Generated animations, to hand-drawn or stop-motion animations. A more detailed article about the work can be found on the site: http://www.africa-in-motion.org.uk/
