I am tired of doing this. Because it is getting predictable. The top-heavy and scattered Tribeca Film Festival starts tomorrow. There’s three Africa-related films on the schedule (correct me if my research was shoddy): a short from South Africa (“Father Christmas doesn’t come here“), a documentary about Rwanda’s genocide and a film that looks like being about the midlife crisis of an American in Cairo (above). There’s also two other films in which Africa is a part-focus (on deaths in child birth and on climate change). I know. Even worse, this is the fourth year (?) that Tribeca decided to partner with ESPN to show sports films. If you’re wondering there’s one sports film with a soccer theme: a film about the connection between the murders of the Colombian drug dealer, Pablo Escobar, and the football player, Andres Escobar, who was murdered 10 days after he scored an own goal for Colombia against the US in the 1994 World Cup.  I know. It had to have something to do with the US. Oh, and these are films already shown as part of ESPN’s 30th year anniversary on television.
