About Us

A New Standard in Black Film.

NOIR FEST is a traveling film festival experience curating the finest aspirational films from across the Black Diaspora. Through visually stunning, aspirational films centered on believable Black heroes, we seek to transform the way Blackness is viewed and understood globally.

With our quarterly, day-long festivals in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles and beyond, NOIR FEST is at the forefront of a dynamic movement catalyzing a paradigm shift in Black representation in global media, as well as a leading distributor of the most visionary Black films.

Each live NOIR FEST event will welcome up to 1000 guests over the course of a full Saturday, will be digitally enabled with the NOIR FEST app, and will feature:

  • The finest visionary, aspirational Black films and filmmakers from across the globe
  • An interactive film viewing experience including viewer ratings and filmmaker dialogues
  • Afro-futuristic art exhibits
  • A highly curated vendor market
  • Interactive group meals and cocktails featuring diverse African Diaspora cuisine
