18th African, Asian and Latin American Film Festival
Milan from 7th to 13th April 2008
The rendezvous is now traditional for all enthusiasts of cinema from the South of the world, the only festival in Italy entirely dedicated to the cinema and cultures of the countries of Africa, Asia and Latin America.
More than 50 nations are represented, with more than 100 films and videos being screened.
Festival Centre
This year the Festival has an important new feature, a Festival Centre, a meeting place/bar for the Festival guests and members of the public where there will be various initiatives: exhibitions and multidisciplinary activities inspired by the cultures of the three continents.
The Festival Centre, a crossroads of the cultures of the South of the world, will be in the west bastion of Porta Venezia and will be open from Tuesday 8th April to Sunday 13th April from the morning until 8.30 p.m.
The African Film Festival is not an isolated episode of the activity of
the COE but, on the contrary, can be considered as the most significant
moment of all the activity of promotion and cultural animation that the
COE has offered the countries of the South of the world since 1987.
