The African Film Festival was commissioned four years ago at the Dallas City Hall in the presence of State officials, seasoned film practitioners, supporters, and African diaspora community leaders. During this year's edition from June 27th to 30th, the Nollywood Travel Film Festival will lead a Symposium on African Cinema at the same venue on June 28th. See you there.

Come and support quality films made by filmmakers across the world that spend time to tell African stories through motion pictures. There would be Questions and Answers at the end of the screenings, so come prepared to find out how and what motivated them to make the film that they did.

TAFF 2019 will be hosted by Patience Ozokwo - Mama G. Some other notables coming to this year's edition include: Sir Benjamin Onyango (Co-Host); Stella Damasus; Uche Jombo; Emem Isong; Chisom Ozlee; Sir Richard Mofe Damijo; Monalisa; Timothy Conrad; Robert Peters; Kang Quintus; Molatelo; and more.
