Afripedia (2014)

Welcome to the new, creative Africa. The documentary series AFRIPEDIA dispels common clichéd ideas of Africa and depicts the continent's avant-garde side in five episodes. Artists from Senegal, Ivory Coast, Angola, Ghana, Kenya and South Africa present photography, fashion, design or music from an innovative perspective. Heavy metal in South Africa, transsexuality in Angola, trendy fashion in Senegal and feminist projects in Ghana - AFRIPEDIA shows us Africa's arts scene in a refreshingly different light. The film offers insights into the dreams and future plans of young people in a rapidly changing continent.
