The FESPACO information packet is out! I emailed to

- 2 pages
The MICA - VIIIth International Market of the African Film and Television

Two entry form for films (deadlines 5 January 1997 and 15 November)

and an entry form for individuals to register

The best / least expensive travel arrangements for those leaving from North
America are probably available via:

Laye Thiam (pronounced Ly Chiam)
Timbuk Tours / Travel Gems
11 Pennsylvania Plaza
New York, NY 10001
212-889-9431

Please call him and tell him you are interested, and encourage him to be
sure to get us all bookings at the Hotel Independence - by far the best
place to stay at. Tell him the African Cinema Conference listserve sent
you...

See you there....
