For the Afrika Film Festival I produce “Interviews with directors” as cameraman and editor. I collaborate with Lise Mercier who conducts the interviews. On her channel are interviews from different editions of the AFFK, but also from the Journées Francophones in Tübingen and FESPACO.

Below is one of the interviews.

From Nigeria to Benin, Burkina Faso, Mali, Mauritania and Morocco, Ike Nnaebue retraces the route he took 21 years ago to reach Europe.
