The Atlantic International Film Festival (AIFF) is an eight-day festival featuring screenings of 100+ films from Atlantic Canada and around the globe. The festival presents films that cover a broad range of topics and genres, and is dedicated to presenting and elevating work from creators who are female-identified, BIPOC, 2SLGBTQ+ and Deaf and Disabled.
AIFF’s mission is to celebrate, elevate and advance the work of Atlantic Canadian filmmakers alongside a curated selection of films from around the globe, inspiring audiences with films that reflect a diversity of voices and perspectives.
History
