Get ready for a fun celebration of futuristic, empowering films & art created by trailblazing Afrofuturist femmes - it's gonna be magical!Welcome to the Afrofuturist Femmes Film Festival!
Come join us at the Charles Sumner School in Washington, DC as we're living out our ancestor's wildest dreams. This festival is created to showcase the rich Afrofuturist work created by femmes in the African Diaspora. We aim to capture the richness of the diaspora and amplify the voices of the diverse stories of femmes filmmakers and creatives from all over the world, that lie within Afrofuturism cinema. This includes the genres of Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Thriller, and others containing Afrofuturist elements.
This will be a widely attended event by industry professionals, elected officials, scholars and more, and will be an great opportunity to network.
The Festival is put on by MacKenzie K. Galloway, Owner of Conscious Creations Films and Ancient African Diasporic History and Afrofuturism student at Howard University.
