Breakfast Networking Panel
Saturday, October 10, 2026 | CARIFF
Start your Saturday at CARIFF with breakfast, networking, and a powerful conversation exploring how Caribbean documentary filmmakers are using cinema to preserve history, confront difficult truths, amplify unheard voices, and bring global attention to issues affecting our communities.
The Power of Caribbean Documentaries brings together filmmakers behind compelling works addressing everything from justice and untold community stories to Jamaica’s coastline and the devastating impact of Hurricane Melissa. Guests will hear firsthand about the responsibility of documenting real lives, the challenges of bringing Caribbean stories to the screen, and how documentary film can become a catalyst for awareness, advocacy, preparedness, and change.
Featured Panelists:
🎬 Maria K. Singh — Vanished in Richmond Hill: The Deniese Hiraman Story
🎬 Devon Taylor — Beach Inna Bondage: The Fight for Jamaica’s Coastline
🎬 Noel Phillips — Dead Men Tell No Tales and Hurricane Melissa: The Storm That Broke Jamaica
The morning will also provide an opportunity for filmmakers, industry professionals, community leaders, business professionals, and film lovers to network and connect before Saturday's CARIFF screenings and events.
