The Ateker International Film Festival is set to transform the remote town of Lodwar, Turkana, into a buzzing global cinema stage from September 2-6, 2025. Founded by Artsy Solomon and the Ateker Creatives Lab, this event spotlights indigenous stories from Ateker communities across East Africa, inviting filmmakers worldwide to share their unique voices.

More than just a festival, AIFF celebrates diverse cultures through film screenings, masterclasses, and community events. With awards honoring categories like Best Turkana Film, Best Ateker Film, and Best International Film, it promises a fresh, exciting platform that champions new cinematic technologies and cultural exchange.
