The MISSION of the San Antonio Black International Film Festival (SABIFF), is to showcase quality film genres indicative of vast Black experiences, advocate for, and support filmmakers of African descent. We expose audiences to a myriad of stories, subject matters, voices, and diverse images of Black people throughout the global Diaspora that have been historically under-represented.
SABIFF activities are made possible by grants, donations, by audience support. Please consider a generous tax-deductible donation to keep Black Subjects, stories, images, and voices alive and thriving in SA and across the world-wide-web.

INVEST IN SABIFFIn 2018 the seeds for SABIFF were planted by native San Antonio, filmmaker/founder, Ada M. Babineaux. The state of Black film inefficiency at festivals in the ‘Alamo City’ sparked a group of community members to join together to cultivate an annual Black Film festival, and affirm that Black Films Matter all around the world. If you enjoy seeing original narratives that reflect a vast Black culture, documentaries that expose you to historical events, new places, fascinating people, and interesting topics, and filmmakers, plus industry thought leaders that challenge you to think outside of your comfort zone, then please consider supporting our festival. We need YOU to be a consistent part of our audience. Your contributions are the water and the sun that will keep this platform growing with the curation of diverse films, impactful events, workshops and discussions that teach, inform, and expand your world view. Invest in SABIFF today. Let's fertilize, pollinate, and yes, grow SABIFF to a bountiful Black & Beautiful harvest in San Antonio, and beyond.
