Cameronian cinema lovers, filmmakers, and investors have begun converging in Buea, South West Region, for the eighth edition of the Cameroon International Film Festival (CAMIFF) 2024.

The week-long event, slated to run from April 22 to April 27, 2024, promises to be a spectacular affair, with a packed programme lined up at the Buea Mountain Hotel.

The festival’s founder, Prince Agbor Gilbert, and his team have pulled out all the stops to ensure a memorable experience for attendees.

With over 50 movies scheduled for screening, CAMIFF opens with the enchanting film “Half Heaven,” produced by Cameroonian filmmaker Enah Johnscot and featuring award-winning actress Syndy Emade.

CAMIFF 2024 is set to showcase a diverse array of films from Cameroon, Nigeria, France, Brazil, Botswana, the USA, the UK, South Africa, Senegal, Switzerland, and other countries.

In addition to film screenings, the festival will host masterclasses covering various aspects of filmmaking, including Directing, Acting, Screenwriting, Cinematography, Documentary Film, and Film Business.

Notably, on April 25, CAMIFF will collaborate with Local Youth Corner, a youth-led civil society organisation, to hold a workshop focusing on the role of entertainment in community dialogue and social cohesion.

Another workshop on April 23, led by the Cameroonian Film Industry executive board, will sensitise attendees on the state of the Cameroonian film sector.

Prince Agbor Gilbert initiated CAMIFF in 2016 to promote Cameroon’s film talent

CAMIFF’s CEO, Agbor Gilbert, revealed in a recent interview with Cameroon Tribune that the event is expected to attract close to 6,000 stakeholders from the Cameroonian cinema sector.

For years, CAMIFF has been the largest film event in Cameroon, shining a spotlight on the country’s burgeoning entertainment industry.

It has also been promoting collaboration between the Cameroon film industry and Africa’s largest film industry, Nollywood, in Nigeria.

Past editions have been graced by renowned Nollywood actors like Ramsey Nouah and Zack Oji, and this year, the festival welcomes Nollywood actor and producer Ruth Kadiri.

Kadiri will host a workshop alongside CFI President Brenda Elung and the Director of Cinema at Canal+ International, Laurent Sicouri, to discuss film and business on April 26.

The festival’s opening night kicks off with a cultural celebration, followed by themed nights, including a mask night and an all-white party.

CAMIFF 2024 promises to be captivating and heartwarming, culminating in an award ceremony on Saturday, April 27.

With its stellar lineup of films, workshops, and industry experts, CAMIFF 2024 is poised to cement its status as a premier event in Cameroon’s cultural calendar, celebrating the country’s rich cinematic heritage and showcasing its potential on the global stage.
