2020 Heritage Film Festival
Looking to the Future/Honoring the Past
Thank you for joining us for this year's Heritage Film Festival. We hope you enjoyed the show!
Since its founding in 2005, The Heritage Film Festival in Largo, Maryland, has showcased short films by independent filmmakers. The Festival is an annual, FREE, volunteer-run, locally organized, community event that offers a unique opportunity for independent filmmakers and lovers of great films to view outstanding short films by local, national, and international directors. This year, due to the pandemic, The Heritage Film Festival is online. However, it is still FREE!
In keeping with the philosophy of the Festival, instead of requesting paid admission to the Festival, we encourage you to donate non-perishable food items or to volunteer at a local food pantry.
We also encourage you to share photographs of you and your love ones watching the Festival so we can include them in our archives and on our website. Please email your photos to info@heritagefilm-video@yahoo.com

This year’s Heritage Film Festival is dedicated to two beloved members of
the Prince George’s County community who died from COVID-19:

Leilani Jordan
October 22, 1992 - April 1, 2020

Dr. David C. Driskell
June 7, 1931 - April 1, 2020
" She said, ‘Mommy, I’m going to work because no one else is coming in early to help the senior citizens,’” her mother, Zenobia Shepherd, said in an interview. “She wanted to help anybody she came in contact with. And, her customers have been calling me to tell me, ‘thank you.’”
