2016. Director & Producer, Jude Fokwang
47 Minutes. English subtitles. Color
Set in the sprawling community of Old Town, the cradle of the modern city of Bamenda (Cameroon), Something New in Old Town explores a unique approach to grassroots development and communal empowerment. This intimate documentary, filmed over three years in the homes, streets and work places of Old Town, takes us into the world of dozens of committed young men and women who strive to change their community as “searchers” of solutions to the manifold problems that beset young people and the urban environment in many African cities. Through their charitable acts, hygiene campaigns and commitment to grassroots development, they build and impart hope in a community that bears the scars of a chequered history.
Non-profit, K-12, and Individual pricing also available
Institution sale $349.00
Reviews & Quotes
Divine Fuh, Anthropologist & Head of Publications, Council for the Development of Social Science Research in Africa
"Something New in Old Town vividly articulates the story of renewal in African cities and the centricity of youth in the production of hope. It depicts the continuous struggles by collectives of urban African youth to radically shift their predicament and that of their communities."
Victor Gomia, Associate Professor, Delaware State University
“This is an excellent example of the impact of community mobilization on actions that yield fruits in feasible development initiatives in a society grappling with a longstanding economic slowdown. It speaks to how everyday people on the African continent may restore confidence in their ability to better their lot.”
