Assessing African Nonfiction at Visions du Réel 2025

Akoroko covered this year’s edition of Visions du Réel in Nyon, Switzerland (April 4 to 13), dispatching reviews for five of the six African films selected to screen there—primarily world premieres!

Our on-the-ground assessment affirms that the films formed a shared logic:

– Grounded in place
– Unconcerned with translating trauma
– Hybrid, medium-length, formally quiet
