Moving forward into the future while building upon the past, the North Carolina African Film Festival (NCAFF) takes cinema of all genres throughout Africa and the African Diaspora to create a story of the present. The festival selects treasured stories of the past to visualize the present and all of its possibilities.
The North Carolina African Film Festival is brought to you by Cultural Heritage Alliance, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
The film festival showcases films that are influenced by African stories that focus on social issues, economic development as well as conflict resolution. The films are made by people of African descent. NCAFF showcases the artistry and the tireless efforts of some of the best filmmakers, while “closing culture gaps through the film festival” and discussions that will follow several films. By addressing and including a diverse audience we will celebrate inclusion and awareness of some of the best films about the African continent.

NCAFF welcomes volunteers.
Volunteers are a vital part of the North Carolina African Film Festival. Being a volunteer comes with many privileges which includes receiving an ALL ACCESS PASS to all film events. Volunteers have opportunities to help shape the event, making it a memorable experience for our filmmakers and attendees. In exchange for your time, you are given the opportunity to attend ALL Festival events, including After Parties and Behind the Scene activities.
With the dedication and relentless effort of the wonderful NCAFF Ambassadors, we have been able to schedule and host a free film workshop in our community; giving youth aspiring filmmakers an opportunity to be exposed to the fundamentals of filmmaking as well as experiences in acting, directing, scriptwriting, or choreography.
NCAFF is growing rapidly and positively within a short period of time. Apart from developing film workshops NCAFF appreciates the arts and stories of Africa to celebrate film practitioners and to empower aspiring artists.
