Hip Hop Film Festival

From August 3rd to 6th, the National Black Theatre screens the best new films, shorts and web series from film industry newbies to seasoned pros from all over the world. The festival’s opening film Swagger is a touching documentary about eleven children with fascinating personalities growing up in one of the poorest housing estates in France. Other events include the “Master Cyphers” series, which is a range of celebrity panels and networking discussions, and an after-the-festival party series that all five boroughs can enjoy.
