THE 43 FILMS / QAFF 2021 OFFICIAL SELECTION

​

The Quibdó Africa Film Festival arrives with its third edition, this time from Pointe-Noire, in a physical presence and virtual platform. We are proud to share with you the official opening of this new adventure that transforms and adapts to grow and continue supporting the African and Afro-descendant audiovisual industry. However, as has been one of the main objectives of the festival, we continue to build networks that strengthen the growth and development of the Afro audiovisual production and distribution industry. For this edition, www.boonet.co will be our great ally and platform for the diffusion of the selected audiovisual productions that will be part of our line-up. However, the QAFF offers its selection of 44 films (25 hours) distinguished among the 277 productions seen by its organizers.
