The 10th Kunta Kinte Afro Community International Film Festival will take place from September 2 to 6, 2026, in the city of Medellín, Colombia. This year, the central theme of the festival is: "Resistance and creativity of Afro-descendant peoples".
We invite filmmakers to submit their films, documentaries, and short films addressing aspects of the African diaspora, such as the history of slavery, global Afro-descendant culture, the struggle for civil rights, migration experiences, and the influence of African heritage in various cultural expressions. Through cinema, we seek to rescue and value the stories of resistance, resilience, and creativity that have defined the Afro-descendant experience.
Every submission received will be thoroughly reviewed by our curatorial team.
