The AfroComicCon International Film Festival is a dynamic platform dedicated to showcasing groundbreaking films that push the boundaries of storytelling and visual artistry. As a division of AfroComicCon and our 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, Oakland Technology & Education Center (OTEC) we are committed to fostering diversity, inclusion, and Afrofuturistic representation in the film industry.


Our festival celebrates the work of talented filmmakers, content creators, and screenwriters from all backgrounds, with a particular focus on underrepresented communities of color. We seek films that inspire, challenge, and entertain, while also promoting important social and cultural messages.
