The show will return to the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles on Sunday, February 25, with actor and comedian Cedric the Entertainer as host.<\/p>\n<p>The awards show celebrates individuals of African descent who have made distinguished contributions to American culture through their work, and salutes the year\u2019s best movies and television shows. ABFF Honors was created by American Black Film Festival founder Jeff Friday, to promote camaraderie and a spirit of mutual appreciation among multicultural artists in Hollywood.<\/p>\n<p>This year\u2019s &#8220;Movie of the Year&#8221; nominees touch on historical figures and subject matters, social and economic issues and women\u2019s empowerment, mixed with a girl\u2019s adventure. Included, is a biopic about Thurgood Marshall and one of his greatest challenges he faced while working as a lawyer for the NAACP; another nominee is an American horror film, which follows an interracial couple and the series of increasingly disturbing discoveries each character faces. Our next nominee takes us on a wild all-girls adventure to New Orleans, during Essence Festival, and along the way they rekindle their sisterhood and rediscover their wild side. Our final nominee highlights two families battling the prejudice of the Jim Crow South and how their lives collide in a dramatic way.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Nominees for \u201cMovie of the Year\u201d are:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.blackfilm.com\/read\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/ABFF-Movie-of-the-Year-2017-Nominees.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-expand=\"600\" class=\"lazyload alignright size-medium wp-image-104917\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;charset=utf-8,%3Csvg xmlns%3D'http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg' viewBox%3D'0 0 300 200'%2F%3E\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blackfilm.com\/read\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/ABFF-Movie-of-the-Year-2017-Nominees-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>DETROIT (Annapurna)<br \/>\nGET OUT (Universal Pictures)<br \/>\nGIRLS TRIP (Universal Pictures)<br \/>\nMARSHALL (Open Road Films)<br \/>\nMUDBOUND (Netflix)<br \/>\nThe &#8220;Television Show of the Year&#8221; (Drama) nominees are powerful, smart, loyal and authentic.
