What happens when African filmmakers stop thinking only country by country and start building a continental film ecosystem? 🎬🌍 At TIFA 2026 in New Orleans, Channel Africa’s Poppy Ntshongwana sits down with Carolyn Carew, Executive Producer and Co-Founder of Free Women Films, to discuss the opportunities emerging for African filmmakers, producers and storytellers. Reflecting on her experience at TIFA, Carew speaks about the powerful cultural connection she encountered between Africa, New Orleans and the Caribbean, and the potential for filmmakers from Africa, Jamaica, Barbados and the United States to collaborate on new stories and productions. She argues that Africa’s next opportunity lies in greater co-production across the continent, stronger film treaties and incentives, shared infrastructure and, crucially, distribution that allows African productions to reach African audiences at scale. With a continental audience of more than a billion people, her message is simple: African filmmakers already have an enormous market at home, and much of its potential remains untapped. Carew also shares the journey behind Extravagant Ways to Say Goodbye, a film written and directed by Lisa Kuhn, from development through Sundance Labs and pitching at Cannes to its festival premiere in Canada. It’s a conversation about African stories, collaboration, investment and building an industry capable of taking those stories from the continent to the world. 🎙️ Interviewer: Poppy Ntshongwana, Channel Africa 🎬 Guest: Carolyn Carew, Executive Producer & Co-Founder, Free Women Films 🎥 Multimedia Production: Sifiso Hlope 📍 TIFA 2026 | New Orleans, USA Subscribe to Channel Africa for more conversations with the filmmakers, investors and creatives shaping Africa’s storytelling economy. #ChannelAfrica #TIFA2026 #AfricanFilm Lightbox link for post with description What happens when African filmmakers stop ...
