Happy to announce that I'll be participating to the festival Afrika Eye in Bristol in November 2022:
“Afrika Eye 2022 is in our sights" We’re back for our 16th edition of the festival with a programme jam-packed with films, dance, music, food, panel discussions and a stunning photography exhibition. Artists from across Africa and within the diaspora bring insights, creative ideas and extraordinary projects, which broaden and enrich our knowledge of a continent that has for centuries been part of our shared histories without ever having an equal voice – ‘Untold Stories’ gives artists a platform to tell it how it is. Annie Menter Festival Director

Tuesday 8th November 6:30pm
Cinema Room (G.H01), 3-5 Woodland Road.
University of Bristol

Ouméma paints graffiti, Chaima dances, Shams performs slam poetry. Three young women, of the Tunisian revolution, who share the struggle for women’s freedom in their country. They lead a peaceful fight, through their practice, with the street as their stage, they aim to recapture this space, largely occupied by men in Tunisia. Their commitment to their art means that their daily lives fluctuate between fear, hope, creativity and a thirst for freedom.
We will be joined by director Caroline Péricard, journalist Melissa Chemam, documentary protagonist Oumema and young film students for a post-screening discussion.
Chair: Professor Siobhan Shilton.
This event is a partnership between UoB, Future Cities and Boomsatsuma
