AfroPix is a social enterprise and streaming platform dedicated to preserving and celebrating authentic African and Caribbean stories. Through direct partnerships with national film boards, festivals, and independent creators, AfroPix delivers high- quality regional cinema to global audiences while ensuring filmmakers are fairly
compensated based on audience engagement.
The Ethiopian International Film Festival (EIFF) was founded by filmmaker Yirgashewa Teshome, and is Ethiopia’s premier annual cinematic event, dedicated to celebrating local talent, fostering international cultural exchange, and advancing the growth of regional filmmaking.
Together, the Ethiopian International Film Festival (EIFF) and AfroPix have officially launched the Ethiopian Showcase. This strategic partnership expands the digital footprint globally of contemporary Ethiopian feature films, documentaries, and shorts.
The showcase marks a key operational milestone in AfroPix’s broader cross – continental mission, which is the establishment of official distribution pipelines with national film bodies and festival curators to ensure that content from every single Sub-Saharan African country, including the Caribbean, is represented on the platform.
Under AfroPix’s creator-first compensation structure, participating filmmakers earn significantly higher returns than traditional global video platforms, paying creators $3,000 per 100,000 views to provide a sustainable revenue model designed to empower independent cinema across emerging markets.
The Ethiopian Showcase is now live and viewers globally can stream the full collection at
