Teddy Goitom is a director, producer and a citizen of the world. He created the global network Stocktown in 1998, focusing on documenting global street culture. We have a lot in common, one thing is that we want to change the negative and stereotypical picture of Africa in western media. Africa is a continent with a lot more than war, starvation and HIV. Teddy was a big moral support when I worked on my documentary “Taxi Sister”. Meanwhile he was working on his documentary “STOCKTOWN X SOUTH AFRICA” together with Benjamin Taft:
“Stocktown Africa is a documentary series about the lively, creative and social contemporary culture blossoming in Africa’s big cities today. Stocktown Africa will bring you face to face with the new urban Africa, where fashion creators, mobile phone journalists, cultural entrepreneurs, music producers and guerilla filmmakers define what it is to be young, talented and passionate in Africa’s 21st century.”
To all Swedes: SE DEN PÅ SVT1 mån 31 okt kl 22.00 !!!
