Fifteen restored African films are now free to stream worldwide today, May 11, 2026, as TV5MONDE+ launches a Cinémathèque Afrique section on its global streaming platform. The launch is timed to the opening day of the Africa Forward Summit, the France- and Kenya-convened gathering of African heads of state and government, held in Nairobi today and tomorrow, May 12, 2026.
“Africa is home to dozens of great masters of cinema whose works are of exceptional richness,” said Kim Younes, CEO of TV5MONDE. “TV5MONDE’s partnership with the French Institute allows, for the first time, online access and worldwide visibility to this heritage of universal value.”
