Description
Overview
An envied hotbed of technological start-ups and a live music persona renowned the world over, Austin has welcomed its next chapter in the entertainment industry: the Capital City Black Film Festival.
Capital City Black Film Festival is a Texas film festival based in Austin, the Capital of Texas. The festival’s goal is to bring together talented African Americans involved in media and the film industry.
In 2013, CCBFF kicked off its inaugural year with a two-day screening of independent films expressing the African American experience. In 2014, we staged an even bigger and better event, reaching minds and hearts beyond the U.S. In 2015, we expanded CCBFF's reach with year-round events and opportunities to experience the brilliant works of black artists and filmmakers across the globe. With household names such as ACL, SXSW and Urban Music Festival in its annual calendar, Austin now includes CCBFF on the city’s list of annual premiere events.
