20 Films by Black Directors Challenge | 2024

Welcome to the fourth annual 20 Films by Black Directors challenge! I am looking forward to another great year of delving into Black art. A huge thank you to those Letterboxd members that are interested in joining in.

The challenge is to watch 20 previously unseen films by Black directors and to review them. Please use the tag "20 Black Directors 2024" so that we can easily find each other's reviews.
