about us

BIFF's schedule of films comprises cinema of every genre, so there's something for everyone to enjoy. BIFF also continues to introduce new Awards categories to honor the talented craftspeople behind the scenes. The five-day festival includes 130+ film screenings, Q&As featuring celebrities and industry professionals, fabulous red-carpet receptions, audience awards, and informative panels.

BIFF culminates with the Closing Night Gala Dinner and Awards Ceremony, which is the highlight of the festival. We shine a light on the unknown artists of today, helping them become the celebrated filmmakers of tomorrow.

Our festival ranks in the Top 1% on FilmFreeway of more than 14,000 film festivals and creative contests around the world.
