BLACK POWER., a three-part seminar series leading up to the 2nd Abibitumi Abibifahodie Film Festival (AAFF 2026). This is the full session.

In this session, we take on artificial intelligence in filmmaking: what AI tools can and cannot do for Black filmmakers, how they are changing the way films are written, made, and seen, and what it means to keep our stories in our own hands as the technology moves forward.
