HIFF Services
We work with emerging and established producers, actors, directors, filmmakers, journalists and educators. Therefore, we will be collaborating with nonprofits that seek to empower the next generation of artists from the Haitian Diaspora. Our 5th Annual Haiti International Film Festival will showcase top films from the Haitian Diaspora. The theme for the Haiti International Film Festival is, “What does home mean for Haitians in the Diaspora?”
We receive sponsorship from the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce and Center of Cultural Innovation that prepares artists to be self-sufficient businesses. In addition, we have received professional development from the being a part of incubators such as Arts for LA, Actors Fund, PCC Venture Launch, and Global Startup Ecosystem. The films festival has received support from CSUN, Pasadena City College, Mayme Clayton Museum, We Work, Echo Park Film Center, and Barnsdall Gallery Theatre to showcase Haitian films. In addition, we have received support from the Pan African Film Festival, African Arts Association, and Black Association of Documentary Filmmakers West as outreach partners for the film festival.
Also, the film festival is developing a streaming platform for our Haitian filmmakers that will allow our diverse audience to experience excellent Haitian films throughout the year.
