Dear Africa Film Project Supporter,
As we close out another year we want to thank you for your continued support of our vision to equip African filmmakers with the skills they need to tell the important stories of their countries. In a world filled with data, stories have the power to connect across oceans, generations, and cultures. They help us understand our place in the world and as author Brandon Sanderson keenly points out, storytellers can give us the "questions to think upon."
While we work towards our full funding goal of the Africa Film Project we are thinking upon an important question about the future of the program. We are currently considering a request to organize the next documentary bootcamp for young journalists in India during the summer of 2015.
Our team is reaching out to possible partners in this venture as well as working to identify potential candidates for the bootcamp program.
There are many stories waiting to be told and we won't find them without asking the right questions.
With our gratitude and best wishes for 2015!
Caroline
