Words From Our Founder

I first saw the need to establish the Afro International Film Market and Festival in partnership with the long-established Cape Town International Film Market and Festival in order to bridge the gap in the industry as well as connect Nollywood and the African film industry to Hollywood and other global brands.

– His highness Jasper Johnson, OCHIALI 7th, AHUNWO kingdom and Founder/Executive Chairman, AIFMF
