The Pan-African Film and Television Festival of Ouagadougou (FESPACO) celebrated its golden jubilee at its 26th edition in 2019. This marks a time for reflection and assessment of the future of the festival. The 50th anniversary also represents a key juncture for scholars and practitioners to rethink curatorial practice in Africa to enable film festivals to function also as a medium of production and dissemination of critical discourse on African screen media. FESPACO has a longstanding tradition of continually producing archives of knowledge about African cinema. The study of the relationships between FESPACO and critical discourse on African cinema offers a template for other festivals to follow, thus opening a new discursive space in the emerging field of film festival studies.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of African Cinemas will explore the interactions of visual and verbal narratives in African film. It recognizes the shifting paradigms that have defined and continue to define African cinemas. Identity and perception are interrogated in relation to their positions within diverse African film languages. The editors are seeking papers that expound on the identity or identities of Africa and its peoples represented in film. The aim is to create a forum for debate that will promote inter-disciplinarity between cinema and other visual and rhetorical forms of representation.
