Three African Screenwriters Unveil New Projects at Series Mania (EXCLUSIVE)


Three African screenwriters who took part in the AuthenticA Series Lab will pitch new genre projects at the Series Mania Forum in Lille.

The lab is organized by the Cape Town-based Realness Institute, in partnership with the StoryBoard Collective, and with the support of the Series Mania Forum and Canada Media Fund. The writers have spent the past six months working with a mentoring team of creative producer Mehret Mandefro and script consultant Selina Ukwuoma, who also co-designed the program. “Creating dedicated spaces where African screenwriters can explore their voice and refine their craft, supported and uninterrupted, is not just valuable — it’s essential for Africa to determine her future,” said Mandefro, who is acting managing director at the Realness Institute.
