dc.description.abstractThe article analyses the curatorial work and collective exhibition of the Muestra de Cine Afrodescendencias (Film Showcase Afrodescendencias), a film programme that is part of the fourth Festival Artístico Audiovisual Afrodescendencias (Afrodescendant Audiovisual Arts Festival) in Afro-Mexican communities held in Costa Chica. The festival emerged in 2021 as an itinerant event led by researchers, collectives, artists and communities around the Amefrican (Afro-Mexican) arts. The film programme, after the first two online editions due to COVID-19 restrictions, gained a new dimension with film screenings in the villages. This article offers an analysis of this new dimension in light of the fourth Film Showcase within the Afrodescendant Audiovisual Arts Festival, of Guerrero in June 2024. In its fourth edition, the film programme was composed of films made in Mexico, Brazil and Senegal. These were exhibited based on thematic axes and followed by discussions with filmmakers and/or actors. The challenges for the organisation, curatorship and realisation of the exhibition, as well as audience reception, guide the reflections of this article.en
