THE FESTIVAL
African and diaspora cinema, in Cannes
Every autumn, filmmakers, actors, entrepreneurs and audiences come together around films, conferences and evening events. An independent, non-profit festival run by Nord Sud Développement for more than twenty years.
• Competition films: feature and short films
• Conferences and masterclasses with professionals
• Exhibitors’ fair, concerts and evening events
• Gala dinner and DIKALO AWARDS ceremony
THE AUDIENCE
A growing audience
• A strong local base: Cannes residents, who get free entry, are at the heart of the audience.
• More people than usual in 2026, with full screening rooms and a busy fair.
• Filmmakers from elsewhere and a Parisian audience.
