AuthenticA
AuthenticA is an exciting and empowering programme funded by the Story Board collective for African episodic screenwriters.
The programme is presented in partnership with Realness Institute, a South Africa based non-profit organisation, which aims to empower Africans to tell their stories from an unapologetically African point of view.
AuthenticA offered to four African screenwriters the unique opportunity to develop their original stories, of all genres, in episodic form.
The Spot Geneva was happy to meet the screen writers during their residence in Geneva for four conversations with our host Oumar Touré Franzen.
They talk about their inspiration, their approach to screen writing and more.
