Celebrate the power of storytelling with the Black Excellence Film Series, a dynamic collaboration between Woezo Africa Music & Dance Theatre Inc. and The Confluence. More than just a screening, this year-long film series creates space for meaningful conversations, deeper connections, and a shared appreciation of the richness of Black culture, history, and creativity. Throughout 2025, enjoy incredible films meant to expand horizons and inspire discussion.
This June, join us for a screening of Fences, an award-winning film starring Denzel Washington and Viola Davis, whose performance earned Davis the title of Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role at the 2017 Academy Awards.
Before the film, Wunmi Idowu, the Founder and Director of Woezo Africa Music & Dance Theatre Inc. and curator of the Black Excellence Film Series will host a panel discussion with local filmmakers Sarah Uwadiae and Omatta Udalor.
