The Roxbury Film Festival, produced by ACT Roxbury and The Color of Film Collaborative, is the largest festival in New England dedicated to screening films by, for, and about people of color. While the motion picture industry has historically eclipsed the works of independent filmmakers of color, the Roxbury Film Festival supports them by putting their works on the screens of important Boston-area cinemas.
