Black Art Action Berlin (BAAB) is a collective of Black, African, and Afro-diasporic artists based in Berlin. We use our platform to support Black communities and people in Germany through art and activism. The Black Reels Film Festival (BRFF) is an event for Black filmmakers and film lovers to connect and share.<\/p>\n

At the BRFF, you can expect to watch a plethora of diverse short films and stories that will leave you wanting more. We hope that you can see yourself reflected in these works, which explore topics like love, movement, connection, queerness, and identity.<\/p>\n

You can choose to attend the following Short Film sections: \u201cLove and Freedom,\u201d \u201cWe Invented Embodiment,\u201d and \u201cThe Work We Do.\u201d Our Feature Film section will show a film by director and Associate Professor at UC Davis, Branwen Okpako.<\/p>\n

Additionally, we invite you to attend the world premiere of the two short films created during our first ever Black Reels Filmmaking Workshop, \u201cFalling into the Light\u201d and \u201cMeditation on Memory and Ancestral Access.\u201d Afterward, the workshop participants, Black filmmakers from throughout Germany, will hold a panel discussion to share the experience.<\/p>\n

We will host a Meet & Greet Brunch for Black creatives to connect with Black film industry professionals. Come with open minds, questions and room in your stomach. Representatives from Medienboard Berlin-Brandenburg will join us exclusively for this session to share any insights and answer questions. Please note the limited capacity! Register as soon as you can.<\/p>\n

Additionally, we will host a panel discussion with Black voices in Germany\u2019s film during the BRFF.<\/p>\n

Come to network, connect, exchange, and experience films where we are in control of our narrative.<\/p>\n
