The Hayti Heritage Film Festival is an annual event in Durham, North Carolina, sponsored by the St. Joseph?s Historic Foundation. It was formerly known as the Black Diaspora Film Festival.

The Hayti Heritage Film Festival is a way of celebrating the history of the African American community through film and movies. It is also a great way of getting films and filmmakers noticed, as there are competitions and film showing events held during the entire event. Panel discussions and workshops are also available, so up and coming and aspiring filmmakers could better hone their skills and talents in the area.

Started almost 20 years ago, the Hayti Heritage Film Festival is now one of the top cultural events hosted by the St. Joseph?s Historic Foundation. You can check their website for schedules and other related events.\
