The story

FECIGE Itinerant South-South Film Festival in Malabo/Bata/itinerant towns

FECIGE, the Festival de Cine Itinerante Sur-Sur de Guinea Ecuatorial, travels between towns across Equatorial Guinea's mainland and island territory, screening free outdoor programmes of African and Ibero-American cinema alongside a national short-film competition for the Ceiba award. Formed in 2012 from the merger of two earlier showcases, it pairs each feature with a live performance and a locally made short film.

FECIGE grew out of two separate festivals that Equatorial Guinea folded into one in 2012: the FCAT Guinea Ecuatorial African film showcase that Casa Africa and the Spanish Cultural Centers of Malabo and Bata had run since 2010, and a parallel local showcase called Cine para la Ciudadania organized by the Asociacion Cinematografica de Guinea Ecuatorial.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

FECIGE's format sets it apart from typical festival circuits: screenings are free, outdoor and itinerant, moving between towns on both the continental and insular parts of Equatorial Guinea rather than staying in one venue, and every feature film is preceded by a live cultural performance and a locally made short, a structure built to give homegrown filmmakers a built-in audience rather than a side slot

02

The mystery stays covered

The festival's three-way split, celebrated African titles, acclaimed Ibero-American cinema, and a national short-film competition for the sculpted Ceiba trophy, reflects its origin as a 2012 merger of two separate showcases into one South-South cultural exchange
