The year 2022 will mark 10 years of existence for FESTICO<\/a>. 10 years during which this festival, dedicated to comic films, will have made its mark and positioned itself as an essential event in the local cinematographic landscape. A result that the festival owes to its dynamic and very talkative founder and general delegate Ferdiand Sylv\u00e8re Engo<\/span><\/em>, as well as to the great team that maneuvers each year to ensure that the event takes place. Founded in 2013, the festival has given itself the mission of “instilling laughter and good humor in the people”<\/em> by offering them during each edition a selection of humorous and satirical films from all over the world. For its 10th anniversary, FESTICO will be no exception to the rule and will offer the public around ten films over the 5 days that the festival will last. Burkina Faso will be honored with two films which will be screened at the opening and closing ceremonis of the festival at the Sita Bella hall. They are Sankara et Moi<\/strong> by Laurant D\u00e9boire<\/span><\/em> at the opening and Les Trois Lascars<\/strong> by Boubacar Diallo<\/em><\/span> at the closing.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
