Ecrans d'Afrique: Revue Internationale de Cinema Television et Video(also known asAfrican Screen), founded by African filmmakers inBurkina Fasoin 1992 during a period of intense worldwide interest and commentary on African T.V. and film, explored all aspects of African film production.[1]It, along with its many contemporaries, sought to ameliorate an intellectual climate which suffered from a dearth of commentary on African film.[1]A corollary of the journal's efforts was to improve worldwide exposure and access to African films - it was linked to thePanafrican Film and Television Festival of Ouagadougou(FESPACO), the continent's leading film festival, from its inception.[1]Ecrans d'Afriquehas also been lauded for its wide gaze covering the whole of the African diaspora and for its excellent coverage ofCaribbeanfilm developments.
