Mo Abudu’s EbonyLife Group and Logical African Partners — the African investment vehicle of France’s Logical Pictures — have launched a $50 million film fund dedicated to financing African cinema and supporting the continent’s filmmakers.

The Afro Film Fund aims to finance approximately 35 African films across the next eight years, supporting an estimated four to nine projects annually. It will provide financing opportunities for African filmmakers, enabling the development and production of what its backers describe as “commercially viable, culturally relevant and internationally competitive films.”
