12th Chicago African Diaspora International Film Festival Returns June 13-19 w/ a Strong Lineup of Films From Over a Dozen Countries

“The Chicago leg of the African Diaspora International Film Festival returns to the Windy City (in its 12th year!!), starting tomorrow, June 13, running through the 19th.

Facets Cinematheque (located at 1517 W. Fullerton Ave.) will host the series, which is presented by ArtMattan Productions. 

This year’s lineup includes a diverse group of diaspora films, as usual, including 14 works of both fiction and non-fiction, representing over a dozen countries around the world, including South Africa, Trinidad & Tobago, Egypt, France, Haiti, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Curacao, Morocco, Argentina, Uruguay, Mexico, and the USA.

Opening the festival will be veteran award-winning documentary filmmaker Stanley Nelson’s “Freedom Summer,” which chronicles and commemorates the violent and bloody summer of 1964 in Mississippi, when hundreds of student volunteers in league with local and national activists and organizers worked to push for voting rights, to bring down the racist segregationists policies and foundations of white supremacy in the nation’s most segregated state.”
