AAFF 2026 Event Details
Online screenings: October 16–17, 2026.
Awards ceremony: October 17, 2026, in the evening at the Exhibition Hall, National Theatre, Accra.
The festival honours Kwaw Ansah with the AAFF 2026 Lifetime Achievement Award.
This is a D.O.O.R. ecosystem event: a practical gathering for Black-controlled cultural production, circulation, and institution-building.
Families often know which story must be recorded. We mention it at gatherings, promise to return with a camera, and then trust memory to wait.
The Abibitumi Abibifahodie Film Festival 2026 features online screenings October 16–17, followed by the awards ceremony on October 17 in the evening at the Exhibition Hall, National Theatre, Accra. Sit with one elder or family storyteller before the festival and record at least ten careful minutes.
Ask where the story begins, which names must be remembered, and what lesson should reach the next generation. Bring that experience into AAFF and listen for craft that can strengthen responsible storytelling.
