About Us

The Amateur International Film Festival (AIFF) proudly launches its first edition, celebrating the spirit of amateur and independent filmmaking worldwide.

AIFF invites filmmakers from around the world to present works that explore creative storytelling, visual experimentation, and bold perspectives. The festival values the spirit of independent filmmaking and encourages films that reflect passion, innovation, and authenticity.

AIFF does not divide submissions into fiction and non-fiction categories. All forms of cinematic expression are welcome — including narrative films, documentaries, experimental works, hybrid forms, animation, and video art. The focus remains on the strength of the idea, the cinematic language, and the filmmaker’s unique vision.

By creating a dedicated exhibition space for amateur filmmakers, AIFF seeks to nurture creative dialogue, provide visibility to emerging talent, and build a supportive international community of storytellers.

The first edition of AIFF marks the beginning of a platform where new voices find their screen and ideas find their audience.
