Searching for Africa in Venice, at the World’s Oldest Film Festival


The Venice Film Festival, the world’s oldest, attracts a glittering, global crowd, but Africa remains woefully underrepresented.

Regardless, a handful of African films will be screened, and include entries from South Africa, Tunisia, Ghana and Egypt.
