Closing Ceremony of the 5th African Film Festival of Tarifa (Spain). From the 25th of April to the 4th of May, the fifth Edition of the African Film Festival of Tarifa took place. It was organized by the Center for Dissemination of the Tarab Straights, a non-profit cultural association, whose aim is to distribute information and serve as a forum for the exchange for diverse cultural expressions coming from Africa. Within the Festival’s program, as well as holding 94 screenings- 35 of which were in official competition-, there were roundtables, exhibits, music recitals and morning screenings for school-age children, among a wide variety of other interesting parallel events. The initiative has the aim of bringing together, as well as publicizing African Cinema, in an effort to promote common identities between Europe and Africa, but it also brings about unity between to apparently very distinct cultures.
