The Festival offers nationwide programming by bringing mini-Festivals with international films to cities and towns throughout the country. These traveling festivals offer other communities with little exposure to the outside world a bridge to global discovery and understanding.

Yèle Cinema

In collaboration with Yéle Haiti, the Festival presents year round programming in different neighborhoods of downtown Port-au-Prince. Called Yéle Cinema, this project shares selected films from our past festivals, free-of-charge, with some of Haiti's most disadvantaged populations. Screening four days a week, Yele Cinema presented by Festival Film Jakmél, reaches an estimated 10,500 people per week.

Institute Français

Following the annual Festival in Jacmel, in collaboration with the Institute Français of Port-au-Prince, Festival Film Jakmèl will present mini-Festivals in Port-au-Prince, Les Cayes and Cap Haitian. Screenings will be held in the local Alliance Française of each city, free-of-charge, for seven consecutive nights.
