Netflix-Unesco extends deadline for 'African Folktales, Reimagined' competition
Netflix and Unesco have extended the deadline for their short film competition until 28 November 2021. The 12-day extension will allow more filmmakers from sub-Saharan Africa to tell their reimagined African folktales around the globe.
The filmmaking competition, administered by Dalberg, was launched on 14 October 2021 in partnership with Netflix and Unesco. In addition to receiving $25,000 each, the six finalists in the competition will be trained by highly regarded industry experts, and will be provided with a $75,000 production budget to create short films that will premiere on Netflix in 2022 as an 'Anthology of African folktales'.
