Welcome to the fourth screening of Afrofilm & Diasporic Realities!
Afrofilm is a self-organised monthly screening of films telling the lives and experiences of African and Afro-descendant people from various geographical locations.
We will be showing films for us by us, which means that the screening is for a closed audience of African and Afro-descendent people.
There is a lot to know and learn from all of us and we think that films are a relevant and efficient way of making this possible.
Join us for the screening of Timmi Kwaku Davis short films ONT EST ENSEMBLE and MON PAYS to then end the evening with a discussion round to share and create knowledge on Black realities we weren’t yet familiar with and not least to connect with each other.

He made his first experiences at the company FUFFIEFILM as an editor of music videos and documentaries in the German hip-hop music scene. As a camera assistant and cameraman he was later involved in over 300 short films, feature films and commercial productions of international greats.
