African Animation for Children

Discovery Family Film Club: African Animation for Children 

In this collection of short animations from African filmmakers, meet Boyas and Sam, a pair of singing dogs who are the stars of the music filled Back Yard series, which is set in urban South Africa with a lively Kwaito soundtrack. Characters Paper, Weight and Float have adventures full of bright colours in the Happy Land cartoons. And African Tales is a series of short films, currently being show in Kenyan schools, each of which was made with a local East African artist. Come and see the films that African children have been enjoying on the other side of the world, and share in the fun.
