A number of celebrated African Canadian filmmakers will be honoured at a Special Gala Awards Ceremony on Thursday January 21st 2010, as part of the 2nd CaribbeanTales Youth Film Festival - Celebrating Black History Month.
Founded by award-winning filmmaker Frances-Anne Solomon, the festival screens Africentric films for audiences of high school and university students, and is a unique festival that addresses the shortage of Africentric curriculum tools in Canadian high schools and universities. This year’s festival highlights the achievements of African-Canadian directors and producers in the development of Africentric film and television, and celebrates this burgeoning sector of Canadian film culture.
Announced this week, CaribbeanTales Youth Film Festival 2010 Gala Launch honourees and award recipients are Claire Prieto-Fuller, Fil Fraser, Sudz Sutherland and Jennifer Holness, and Hubert Davis. The ceremony will take place at the William Doo Auditorium, (45 Willcocks Avenue.) at 6 p.m.
