M-Net, the multi-channel Pan-African content provider, has today announced the further roll-out of the African Film Library (AFL) with a season of films dedicated to African humour.
The films, available to download from www.africanfilmlibrary.com follows the launch of the video-on-demand service earlier this year, this new season of films will feature a selection of hit African comedies.

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
