Karibu!

In this edition of African Mirror: DJ ORIKoL visits opening night of the African Film Festival (Auckland/Wellington, NZ). This is a volunteer run initiative with the mission to promote African culture through the medium of film, and a desire to provide an equal opportunity platform. Over the course of the evening we had a fantastic time getting to know the organisers, entertainers, and fans that make the festival possible.

The Festival, now in its sixth year, continues to grow. With a particular interest in promoting female contribution to African film this year, it's community shares passionate insights into how the industry can positively uplift African artists and culture.
