Abidjan’s SICA Positions as a Lynchpin Event for African Film, TV


A new SICA Business Hub will offer direct financial support to promising projects, and SICA’s final day focus on shooting in the Ivory Coast.

A bourgeoning film-TV market, the International Salon for Audiovisual Content ( SICA), is set to return June 26-28 for its third edition in Abidjan, positioning itself as a lynchpin for Africa’s film and television industry. Konaté teased the African premiere at SICA of “Le Grand Déplacement” (“Black to the Future”) from French actor-director Jean Pascal Zadi and shot in Ivory Coast as a highlight of the three-day event. That commitment is reflected not only in SICA’s focus on co-productions and industry partnerships––drawing in regional players like Cinékita, Studio KÄ, Orun, Loqui-la-Technologie, RTI, NCI, Life TV, SABC, and more, but also in its global outlook.
