The Centre of African Studies (CAS) at the University of Edinburgh hosts a symposium that will combine discussion of neglected strands of filmmaking from Francophone West Africa (which has been the central focus of African film criticism) with analysis of recent cinematic trends: from the emergence of women directors to the development of a dynamic and innovative body of filmmaking in countries such as Morocco, Nigeria, Ghana and South Africa. A number of leading international scholars will present their research on various strands of African cinema. The symposium will be of particular interest to those interested and involved in Film, African and Cultural Studies. Sat 21 Oct from 10.30am-1.30pm, University of Edinburgh, David Hume Tower, Faculty Room South. This is a free event - please register by emailing symposium@africa-in-motion.org.uk
