Importance of community
Hayti Film centers Black Southern film as a means to 1) create a robust ecosystem and 2) connect the diaspora to the richness of our ancestral home in America; the South.
When you watch a film, attend an event, volunteer your time, donate money, become a sponsor, it not only supports our work; it helps to ensure we are able to tell the stories of our history, our culture, while crafting the future.
We are growing. We are strong.
We recognize the ability of regional cinema to galvanize audiences who are longing to see stories about themselves. Connecting with Hayti means connecting with a film program that forefronts Black, Southern storytelling in both the American and the Global South.
