The material - in total 189 hours, contains unique historical and cultural material.
In 13 sections one finds a complete survey of available edited documentaries and footage shot during the years 1982-1994 by the video group of the AABN sometimes in conjunction with the ANC video unit. Moreover, the African Skies archive contains material from the Angolan and Mozambican television and from Dutch (and to a lesser extent elsewhere broadcasted) television.
The catalogue is grouped in chronological order and in essence coincides with major events organized in the Netherlands by the Dutch Anti Apartheid Movement / AABN.
The index provides a first a clear view about the content. Twelve sections start with a description of the event followed by a description of the footage.
The last section, the thirteenth, Miscellaneous is not chronologically grouped and commences with a described overview of the material. A series of interesting programmes and items is included in the sub-section Various which comprises 19 hours taken from television.
The African Skies catalogue is available in three formats:
1. The book version is available at selected libraries around the world (also see Where to view).
2. The web version which can be browsed by chapter at this website.
3. A downloadable version of the catalogue in Adobe Acrobat (PDF)-format will be made available at the African Skies website soon.
For more information on the archive or specific footage, as well as for ordering of timecode copies or footage, please contact African Skies. If possible please include tape numbers or other relevant details in your e-mail.
