The 11th Annual
Cascade Festival
of African Films
Schedule
This month of February
promises to be an exciting
time for Portland Commu­
nity College. A variety of
cultural events will grace
PCC’s campuses during the
m onth to com m em orate
Black History Month. All
events are free and open to
the public, including the cen­
terpiece o f the celebration,
the l l lh Annual Cascade
Festival o f African Films,
which will show more than
20 films.
The film festival will also
pay tribute to the great
Senegalese director Djibril
Diop Mambety, who died in
1998.
In
a
p a rtia l
regrospective, the films are
The Girl Who Sold the Sun,
and two earlier festival fa­
vorites: Touki Bouki and
Hyenas.
There is a new element to
the festival this year. On
Thursday evenings, a se­
ries of documentary films
from Cameroon, Sudan, Si­
erra Leone, and South Af­
rica are planned.
As with the other evening
film showings, a discussion
will follow, generally by in­
dividuals from those coun­
tries. The film festival will
continue to have Thursday
afternoon matinees, begin­
ning at noon. This will be a
chance for the community
to see the same films that
will be shown on Friday and
Saturday evenings. Finally,
Kirikou and the Sorceress
(now in English) will be
shown for the Family Film
Day at 2 p.m. on Saturday,
Feb. 17. Bring the children
for a time o f storytelling,
film and more.
