AfrotroniX: The futuristic face of African art

ENCORE! © AFP

As the New Africa-France summit kicks off in the southern French city of Montpellier, we take a look at some of the cultural issues on the agenda.

Chadian musician AfrotroniX joins us to share his definition of Afrofuturism and explain why the arts have a unique potential to mobilise young people, who have a "new vision of African society".

We also take a look at an exhibition of the very best of contemporary African art in the south of France, and AfrotroniX weighs in on the French decision to return artefacts taken from Africa in colonial times.
