There’s a lot to celebrate as we look back on 2023. Here are a few highlights: MPI Original feature films Pinball and Project Home released to major streaming platforms including Hulu and Apple TV. We finished post-production on two features Kemba and Freedom Hair, completed principal photography on our next feature-length narrative Motherland, had six films screen in 36 film festivals, and placed 19 interns and supported 41 fellows through our Rising Filmmaker Program.

MPI couldn’t do any of this work without the generosity of thousands of supporters like you. 

To make your 2023 year-end gift, donations must be completed by 11:59 p.m. (EST) Sunday, December 31.

2024 is already shaping up to be an impactful year as MPI prepares to release Kemba on BET and the streaming service BET+; plans to premiere Freedom Hair at film festivals across the country; completes post-production on Motherland; further develops its film slate of pro-freedom films; and, of course, continues its important talent development work through the Rising Filmmaker Program.
