Africa is/in The Future #7
Festival|« Adventures in Speculative Fiction »
-
PointCulture Bruxelles & Cinéma NOVA
In this seventh edition of the AIITF festival, we will be interested in narratives that speculate on the future in different forms: with the screening of an Afro-futurist science-fiction musical film (Neptune Frost), through a performance that resists the logic of racialised representation, mixing video (Black Narratives Composing Alternatives), poetry and music, and with a moment of exchange on the imposition of a single dominant narrative and on the ways out (What forms of narratives for hacking the imaginary? and From World Music to Hybrid Music). This seventh edition will close with an immersion in the hybrid music of the English label On The Corner Records (Party).
Africa Is/In The Future ?
Created in 2016 at the initiative of Cinema Nova and PointCulture, AIITF is an interdisciplinary festival on African and diasporic contemporaneities. Meetings, concerts, screenings, dj sets, exhibitions and performances, the festival invites to change perspectives, and to imagine other possible futures from alternative experiences and narratives.
The 7th edition of the festival will open a new page in its history: from 2023 onwards it will be La Bellone that will carry the project, surrounded by other partners and with new dynamics and energies.
You can find the programme here.
An initiative of PointCulture and Cinema Nova in partnership with Culture & Democracy, the bookshop Météores and La Bellone.
With the support of Africalia, the Goethe Institute Brussels, the Walloon Federation - Brussels (FWB) and Wallonie Bruxelles International (WBI).

The cinema is wheelchair accessible. During opening hours, we can arrange a metal plate that allows to cross the small threshold of the street. Unfortunately there is a staircase to access the bar and the toilets.
