​

The Black Alphabet Film Festival began in 2013 in response to the lack of representation of films that tell the unique stories of the Black LGBTQ/SGL+ community. Now in its 11th year of existence, the Festival continues to promote filmmakers and stories that portray the diverse people and experiences of the community, as well as create opportunities to have discussions with filmmakers that are centered around those unique experiences.

​

The Festival currently operates in two permanent locations (Chicago & Cincinnati), and since the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020, also continues to feature a virtual component to allow access to a broader audience.​

You may review a list of past films screened by Black Alphabet and get information about the films.
