Africa No Filter Last Mile Film Fund 2022 (up to $25,000)

Deadline: September 20, 2022

Applications for the Africa No Filter Last Mile Film Fund 2022 are now open. Africa No Filter is launching the Last Mile Film Fund to finance African filmmakers who are working on the last steps of their projects.

Africa has an endless pool of talented filmmakers, but they often face a lot of challenges throughout the production process, especially when it comes to financing post-production costs. The Last Mile Film Fund offers grants for feature-length films and for short films. Films must have appealing storylines that challenge stereotypical narratives of Africa.

The grant, which is open to applicants in the continent and the diaspora, will fund narrative-changing films that are in the final stages of production. Films must have appealing storylines that challenge stereotypical narratives of Africa and should be ready for completion and premiere by August 31, 2023.

Grant

  • The Last Mile Film Fund offers grants of up to $15,000 for feature-length films and up to $10,000 for short films.

Eligibility

  • Open to filmmakers based in the continent and the diaspora, and the project needs to be African led.
  • Short and feature-length fiction, documentary or animation films at the final stages of production, including post-production (editing, visual effects, sound mixing, dubbing…), marketing and distribution, etc.
  • The call-out is aimed at post-production activities which can be covered by the grant in full. However, if the cost of the intended activity is more than the requested funding from ANF (Africa No Filter), the applicant must show evidence of confirmed funding for the excess amount from another source.
  • The production company must demonstrate that they have the authority and capacity to submit the project and hold all the rights in and to the project and its related materials.
  • All films must be submitted in their original language or subtitled in English.
  • Films must challenge a prevailing negative stereotype about or within Africa or reflect a refreshing, more contemporary and nuanced narrative of the continent, along with a storyline that is compelling to a broad audience both at the pan-African level and internationally.

Application

The following applications will not be considered:

  • Incomplete applications which lack supporting materials and documents.
  • Applications submitted via post or e-mail.
  • Films that will be completed after August 31, 2023.
  • Short and feature-length films that are in development or production phases.
  • Films that reinforce the stereotypical and outdated views on Africa by addressing the recurring themes around poverty, poor leadership, weak governance, violence, terrorism, disease, etc.
