3rd Annual Nou Akoma Nou Sinèrji (We Heart We Synergy) Haitian Dominican Transnational Film Festival aims to showcase art and films from emerging and accomplished industry professionals of the Haitian Dominican African Diaspora to authentically reflect our community’s diverse experiences and backgrounds. It's four day programming in Oct 2025 promotes cultural diversity through various art genres, including dramatic, documentary, experimental, short films, podcasts, and panel discussions.

Founded by Dominicans Love Haitians Movement, Nou Akoma Nou Sinèrji Transnational Film Festival is a four-day festival celebrating a transnational experience, one that extends beyond the borders of these two nations and encompasses the experiences of the Haitian and Dominican Diaspora globally.

By telling our stories, we humanize Black and Indigenous people. By telling our stories, we take a moment to bring the veil and walls down that would lock us away from our emotions and feelings, humanizing one another.

Thus, "no person is an island,” we are not isolated people; we are directly impacted by what occurs in one location thousands of miles away across the globe. Once we shift our gaze, we recognize the similarities of the crisis impacting not just these two nations but many nations across the globe dealing with statelessness, migration, ecological disaster, racialization, poverty, xenophobia, neoliberalism, nationalism, white supremacy and anti-blackness, border walls, and encampments. Nou Akoma Nou Sinèrji Haitian Dominican Transnational Film Festival is created to counteract these divisive ideologies and messages created by propaganda, manipulation, and hate groups.
