Rehoboth Beach Black American Film Festival Celebrates Brilliant Creators and Filmmakers
The Rehoboth Beach Black American Film Festival plays a meaningful role in celebrating Black creators, filmmakers, and storytellers. In this video we get a behind-the-scenes look at how the festival brings people together through film, culture, and conversation, while creating space for voices and stories that don’t always get the spotlight they deserve.
Watch Steve Monz and Lisa Bryant of DelmarvaLife interview Dave Bever, Executive Director of the Rehoboth Beach Film Society, and Joe Lawson, the Executive Director of SDARJ. In their conversation, they share why this festival is so important to the community, how it supports diverse artists, and what attendees can expect—from engaging films to thoughtful discussions that stick with you long after the credits roll. It’s a great reminder of how powerful storytelling can be in building understanding, connection, and a more inclusive arts scene right here in our region.
