Panafrican Film and Television Festival of Ouagadougou (FESPACO) is an important biannual African film festival. The most prestigious award given out at the festival is the "Étalon d'or de Yennenga" (Golden Stallion of Yennenga), named in reference to the mythical founder of the Mossi empire.[1] The "Étalon d'or de Yennenga" is awarded to the African film that best shows "Africa's realities". Originally the festival just handed out one "Étalon de Yennenga", however in 2005 it introduced with the "Étalon d'argent de Yennenga" (Silver Stallion of Yennenga) and the "Étalon de bronze de Yennenga" (Bronze Stallion of Yennenga) two additional awards and renamed the main award to "Étalon d'or de Yennenga".
Other special awards include the Oumarou Ganda Prize, given for the best debut film, and the Paul Robeson Prize for the best film by a director of the African diaspora.
