Black Trans Short Film Festival

The future is something we create. At Comfrey Films, we are deeply committed to ensuring that Black Transgender, Gender Non-Conforming and Intersex (TGNCI) people are unforgettable for generations to come. For millennia, Black TGNCI people have been the ones to create our own systems of care and safety, making it possible for future generations of our community to exist and live with dignity.

The Comfrey Films Black Trans Short Film Festival is continuing that commitment to ensure that  Black TGNCI folks in the future know that we existed, stunningly, and with great courage. 

From April 30-May 2, 2026, Comfrey Films will bring to life our second annual Black Trans Short Film Festival in Durham, North Carolina. The Black Trans Short Film Festival will welcome films by Black TGNCI directors, producers, and screenwriters. Sign up for our newsletter for more details soon!
