BE AN ANGEL - PLEASE SUPPORT THE 23nd ANNUAL
ST BARTH FILM FESTIVAL
May 1-6, 2018
www.stbarthff.org

Founded in 1996, the St Barth Film Festival has become one of the major cultural events on the island. Dedicated to Caribbean Cinema, the festival shows up to a dozen films each year in late April at the outdoor cinema at AJOE in Lorient, at the Port in Gustavia, and on the beach in Flamands. All of the films are in French or have French sub-titles so that they are accessible to the island audience. The video screenings are free to the public in order to attract the largest audience possible and best promote Caribbean cinema.
Over the past 22 years, the festival has created one of the few existing crossroads for Caribbean filmmakers to meet with their colleagues from Europe and the United States and share ideas about filmmaking. This unique forum appeals to filmmakers who do not often have the opportunity to meet and discuss their work in an informal festival setting such as St. Barth.
We have also developed an annual film-in-the-schools program. In addition to showing films and taking film professionals to speak with students in island schools.
The St. Barth Film Festival receives support from the local government of St. Barthélemy as well as the regional bureau of the French Ministry of Culture (DAC Guadeloupe). But as we expand our annual activities, we need to increase our budget with private donations.
All of the people involved in the organization of the St. Barth Film Festival are volunteers, and come from as far away as the US, France, Guadeloupe, and other Caribbean islands to make the festival possible.

No screening on the beach this year?

We made the festival one night shorter this year for assorted reasons and the beach night it was... last year it was so windy we literally had to hold the screen in place and the sand was whipping up around us... so we decided to take a year off from the beach...I am sure it will be back in the future !

Maybe when the new hotel is built on the beach in Flamands, the owners will offer a sheltered space to the Festival. ��
