Our Mission
By establishing the Mott Haven Film Festival, we are telling the world, The Bronx does have a film voice and we are here to celebrate it in every way.
Our Festival
Our film festival is Bronx based. Founder & Executive Director was raised in the Mott Haven section of the South Bronx and wanted to give back to the community. That's when the idea of creating a film festival to represent Mott Haven came to mind. The Mott Haven Film Festival was born to show support in the South Bronx while elevating the film voice of the Borough.
Our Programs
Events and Programs for the Mott Haven Film Festival are still being developed so stayed tuned for updates. Keep the first weekend of October clear because The South Bronx in New York will have it's Bronx Festival! Can you say "The Bronx" throw your "X's" up!
