Belo Horizonte Black Film Week

About the Film Week
From April 10th to 16th, 2021, the Belo Horizonte Black Film Week will present a selection of 50 films from Brazilian, African, and Diasporic black cinematography organized into 3 sections and 2 tributes: “African Films Revisited: the origins of FESPACO”; “Surreal16 Collective, A New Look at Nigerian Cinema”; “Black Film-Writings”; “Maria José Novais Oliveira: Our Actress”; and “Film, negritude and poetry: a tribute to Sarah Maldoror”.

The film programs will be made available for viewing online and free of charge, on  TodesPlay (https://todesplay.com.br), a platform managed by APAN – Associação do Audiovisual Negro [Association of Black Audiovisual]. In this edition, besides the sections, we will have talks with the international guests, and Q&A's with filmmakers in the section dedicated to Brazilian films, all of which will be broadcast on the Semana de Cinema Negro de Belo Horizonte’s YouTube channel.
