Guyanese and Caribbean films will this year continue to be celebrated by the Caribbean Film Academy (CaFA), which in partnership with the Caribbean-American culture blog Rewind And Come Again (RACA) will for the third year running hold the Timehri Film Festival (TFF) from May 30 to June 3, 2018.
According to a press release from the organisers, over the five days, daily film screenings and discussions will be held at various locations in Georgetown such as Moray House and Dutch Bottle Café. It is expected that films about Guyana and by Guyanese will feature prominently coupled with the screenings of short and feature length films from around the Caribbean and the diaspora. Most the screenings will be free and open to the public.
“In an effort to reach audiences who don’t have access to the festival, TFF will once again hold a series of satellite screenings in and around the capital and neighbouring villages. Films will be shown at select schools, prisons, and indigenous communities,” the organisers said in a release.
