Overview

The Cleveland International Film Festival (CIFF) promotes artistically and culturally significant film arts through education and exhibition to enrich the life of the community. In other words, we present the newest and best films from around the world, and we do everything in our power to make sure that our audience learns something along the way - about other cultures, about the topic at hand, about the experience from the filmmakers themselves. The Cleveland International Film Festival's vision is to be a leader in helping the world discover the power of the film arts to educate, entertain, and celebrate an inclusive human experience.
