Film Festival: Ongeziwe Nelani (on camera) Kyala Gleisner, (directing)

The newest campus of South Africa’s #1 School of Motion
Picture Medium and Live Performance, AFDA Durban, will present its annual film,
television and performance festival on November 22 at the campus in Glen Anil.
Featuring the best of third year and postgraduate student
films from AFDA Johannesburg and Cape Town as well first and second year
student productions from AFDA Durban, the festival will highlight the work of
SA’s top future film makers and entertainers. AFDA Durban Music and Stage
students will also be performing live as well as the Television School’s shows
being presented in a relaxed TV lounge set up in the school’s library.
Food and beverages will be on sale to keep festival goers’
stamina up for the movie marathon they’ll be enjoying. There will also be a bar
for over-18’s and an outside chill area where film watchers can take time out
between screenings, grab a bite and enjoy the open mic stage where Sonic Roisin
will perform at 17h00, with AFDA music students also showcasing their talents.
A once-off entry fee of R20 grants access to the entire
festival, including all screenings and live performances. The festival opens at
09h30 with the first screening at 10h00 and the last finishing by 21h00. There
will be film screenings throughout the day as well as first and second year stage
performances being held in the Actor’s Studio at 18h00 and 20h00 respectively,
whilst the live music performances will be outside.
