Three days of activities devoted to cinema and the actors of this milieu which has been booming in Cameroon for several years. After several weeks of assiduous communication on social networks and in the media, the YFD effectively started on February 11, 2021 at the Sita Bella theatre in Yaounde with an opening ceremony full of emotion. The programme of this evening included a <em>red carpet, a People photo shoot<\/em> and the presence of several personalities from the Cameroonian cinema and cultural and media universe such as <em>Bassek Ba Kobhion<\/em>, <em>Narcisse Kouokam<\/em>, <em>Celine Victoria Fosto<\/em>, etc..

In addition to film screenings, the festival team placed particular emphasis on workshops led by film professionals for young people who want to get into the profession. From the script workshop led by <span style=\"color: #000000;\">Esth\u00e9line Fomat<\/span> to the Personal Branding workshop led by <a href=\"http:\/\/celinefotso.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Celine Victoria Fotso<\/a>, through acting, production and distribution workshops led by <span style=\"color: #000000;\">Cynthia Elisabeth Ngono<\/span> and <span style=\"color: #000000;\">Flavienne Tchatat<\/span> respectively, the public was spoilt for choice. The workshop that certainly made the biggest impression on the audience was the one led by the sponsor of the event, director Cyrille Masso. A workshop during which the filmmaker shared his experience of more than 30 years in the film industry and made specific contributions to the various issues raised.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Although the festival did not put much emphasis on the promotion of the selected films, giving priority to other activities, the public present nevertheless had the opportunity to discover good films. Apart from the two opening films which were well received, other films also seduced the public, such as <strong>Cuisine Mondiale <\/strong>by <span style=\"color: #000000;\">Steve Kamdeu<\/span>, a film which has already won awards in several other festivals, <strong>Karma<\/strong> by <span style=\"color: #000000;\">Laura Targha<\/span>, <strong>l&#8217;H\u00f4pital<\/strong> by <span style=\"color: #000000;\">Stella Tchuisseu<\/span>. A series of films that try to fit into the daily lives of their audiences but which demonstrate the constant progression of young local filmmakers and their desire to propose new approaches to the way stories are told.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1700\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1700\" style=\"width: 749px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-1700\" src=\"https:\/\/ayilamedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG_6338-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"749\" height=\"499\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ayilamedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG_6338-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ayilamedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG_6338-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ayilamedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG_6338-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ayilamedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG_6338-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ayilamedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG_6338-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/ayilamedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG_6338-750x500.jpg 750w, https:\/\/ayilamedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/IMG_6338-1140x760.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 749px) 100vw, 749px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1700\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">(De la gauche vers la droite) Rostand Wandja &#8211; Cyrille Masso &#8211; Maimounatou Bourzaka &#8211; Simon William Kum<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<blockquote><p><strong>R\u00e9compenses<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The YFD ended on 13 February with a rain of awards.
