Africa in Motion Film Festival – 22 Oct to 1 Nov 2009
Welcome to the Africa in Motion website. Africa in Motion (AiM) is an annual African film festival based at Filmhouse Cinema in Edinburgh, Scotland.
AiM is the biggest African film festival in the UK and screen dozens of films from all over the continent, including shorts, documentaries and features. A number of African filmmakers are in attendance each year to talk to audiences about their work and the screenings are accompanied by a variety of complementary events such as discussions, masterclasses, seminars and music events.
The festival’s main goal is to overcome the under-representation of African film in the UK and to introduce Scottish audiences to the riches of African cinema. AiM is currently in its fourth year and this year’s festival is taking place from 22 Oct to 1 Nov. If you need travel and accommodation information for Edinburgh, please click here.
In addition, a number of films will tour to rural areas in the Scottish Highlands and Islands in early November.
