The South African School of Motion Medium Picture and Live Performance (AFDA), listed by ID magazine as ‘one of the top ten off-the-grid art institutions in the world’ will exhibit 57 new experimental films, broadcast 11 new television shows and perform 12 stage and 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,” says Garth Holmes, co-founder and chairman of AFDA.
AFDA Cape Town has opened its new 80-seat theatre, ‘228 on Lower Main’, which will host the AFDA Live Performance Experimental Festival productions.
