Design Indaba FilmFest 2017

The Design Indaba FilmFest is a showcase of the world’s best indie and creative films, screened at the annual Design Indaba Festival in March 2017. All of the films selected for this once-off programme are African premieres, to be shown on African soil for the very first time.

Cape Town is a city of romantics – strolling through exhibitions, attending evening gigs from the immense supply of talented music artists, and sitting down to enjoy a good, old-fashioned movie.

For Design Indaba Festival we bring these together and one of the highlights is the annual Design Indaba FilmFest. Feast your mind on a different African premiere each night of the Festival. Never-before-seen feature films and short films come to life at the Artscape, where you can catch a drink, see incredible exhibitions and have a listen to the country’s (and the world’s) best musicians before heading in to see a film that no one on the African continent has viewed before.

The Cape Town International Animation will also be premiering a very special project in collaboration with Design Indaba during the FilmFest, so stay tuned for more details. 

Design Indaba FilmFest 2017 will showcase a combination of feature films and short films over three nights at the Artscape in Cape Town, from 1 to 3 March, for R80 a ticket. The Labia will screen Nocturnal Animals on Saturday 4 March at R50.
