Resumo: | This article discusses issues related to the construction of analytical discourses on African films and how the criteria used in the process of diffusion and acclaim of this cinematography have a close relation with two mediating instances: the festivals and the academy. We argue that the adoption of different critical approaches starts from a process of feedback between these two instances that, by working as spaces of communication, guide the content of the critical-analytical texts that circulate in these spaces and, therefore, restrict the perception of this cinematography to specific paradigms. Considering the importance of the festivals and the academy for the legitimacy of African cinemas, and their roles as mediators, we make a brief analysis of catalogs produced in three festival programs about African films in Brazil between 2015 and 2017, in order to understand the discursive logics that guide the production of critical texts on African cinematography, and its consequences on the visibility of these films. |

Argumentamos que la adopción de diferentes enfoques críticos parte de un proceso de retroalimentación entre esas dos instancias que, al funcionar como espacios de comunicación, orientan el contenido de los textos crítico-analíticos que circulan en estos espacios y, como consecuencia, restringen la percepción de esa cinematografía a ciertos paradigmas. Considerando la importancia de los festivales / muestras y de la academia para la legitimación de los cines africanos y sus papeles como mediadores, hacemos un breve análisis de catálogos producidos en tres muestras sobre películas africanas en Brasil entre el 2015 y el 2017, a fin de comprender las lógicas discursivas que orientan la producción de textos críticos sobre la cinematografía africana, y sus consecuencias sobre la visibilidad de estas películas.Esse artigo discute questões relacionadas à construção de discursos analíticos sobre filmes africanos e como os critérios utilizados no processo de difusão e consagração dessa cinematografia reservam uma estreita relação com duas instâncias mediadoras: festivais/mostras e a academia.
