Durban to host the 2015 AFDA

AFDA, the South African film, television and performance school, is to host its annual Experimental Festival at its Joburg campus (19 to 20 June), Cape Town campus (19 to 21 June) and Durban campus (20 June) 2015. This year AFDA will exhibit over 51 new experimental films, broadcast seven new television shows, perform nine stage productions and seven musical productions.

"The experimental festival is a unique opportunity for third-year students to discover and express their artistic intent as well as experiment with film, theatre and television craft techniques," said Garth Holmes, co-founder and Chairman of AFDA.

This year, Durban hosts the experimental festival with its first group of third-year students. Durban's Dean, Franco Human, said: "There is great anticipation amongst the staff and students as we gear up to show the rest of South Africa how KZN students intend making their mark on the screens and stages of the future."
