The African film industry has a rich heritage in the comedy genre, producing films that provide a unique perspective on African culture and its political landscape, and often a source of escapism in times of unrest.

The catalogue includes:

  • Max and Mona, a story of village boy with extraordinary mourning skills

  • FESPACO 2007 winner Le President A-T-IL le Sida aka The President has Aids

  • Cameroonian comedy Pousse-Pousse and Rickshaw Tricycle Man by Daniel Kamwa

  • Soweto Green, a political drama-comedy made after South Africa's first historic democratic elections

  • Zimbabwean comedy-drama Kini and Adams by Idrissa Ouedraogo
