Afro Mosaic Cinema Summit to Begin a Conversation Toward a Global Cinematic Agenda
Join the conversation in Atlanta or virtually from around the world on October 4.
ATLANTA — The Afro Mosaic Cinema Circle will present the Afro Mosaic Cinema Summit on Sunday, October 4, 2026, at 1:30 p.m. Eastern Time, bringing participants together in person and online to explore a simple question: What can we agree on as a starting point for a global cinematic agenda?
Facilitated by Anthony Page, festival director of the Alma Film Festival, the summit will take place in the symposium room at the Russell Innovation Center in Atlanta. A virtual link will allow participants around the world to join the discussion.
“We know that creative economies around the world have distinct needs, and there may be many things we don’t agree on,” said Page. “But what are the one, two, or three things we can agree on? That’s where a global cinematic agenda can begin. We want to start small and grow organically over time, welcoming as many perspectives as possible so that what we develop reflects the vast kaleidoscope of humanity and the unique creative economies in different regions of the world.”
The think tank–style gathering will focus on listening, finding common ground, and identifying a few shared starting points, with particular attention to underrepresented voices in global cinema. The summit will also introduce the Circle’s current ambassadors from around the world.
This is an opening conversation, with participants invited to help shape what comes next.
