For 23 years, Urbanworld Film Festival has brought a diverse slate of cinema to the fore. This year’s festival lineup brings 78 film selections plus seven special spotlight presentations, encompassing narrative film, music videos, animated shorts, and more. This year’s program runs the gamut from feature-length biopics — like Harriet, acclaimed director Kasi Lemmons’s take on the life of Harriet Tubman, which will open the festival — to documentary shorts — like Corine Dhondee’s Bradford Young: Cinema Is The Weapon, which puts the award-winning cinematographer of Ava DuVernay’s Selma and Denis Villeneuve’s Arrival (to say nothing of Space Jam 2) in front of the camera. Founded in 1997 by entrepreneur and film executive Stacy Spikes, Urbanworld’s mission was “to expand the definition of ‘urban’ beyond ethnicity to include sensibility, culture, and proximity.” The festival seeks to prioritize inclusion for diverse creators and highlight work that speaks to their communities.
