My Africa Is: Dakar Edition

By Tom · On September 25, 2014

myafrica2_thumbA new three-part series that dives into Dakar and Senegal discovering new scenes in surfing, dance and satirical commentary.
My Africa Is, an independent documentary taking viewers beyond the headlines and inside the continent. This second edition focuses on Africa’s fast-paced metropolis Dakar.


“Edition Dakar’s storylines are reflective of the untold yet riveting realities played out on its streets everyday and we really wanted Dakar to speak for herself,” said Executive Producer and Director, Nosarieme Garrick. “From our perspective, My Africa Is is a movement driven by a deep conviction to show Africa’s cultural diversity. Season 2 is a significant milestone that we hope continues to turn the page on outdated and misinformed perceptions of the continent.”
