ImoIFF Creatives & Film Festival is a platform for films and filmmakers around the world that inspires the love for film, cinema, and the arts; and supports independent filmmakers. The festival is created to promote the local film industry both locally and internationally and to bring all the industry stakeholders together in a more focused and structured environment.

At ImoIFF, filmmakers are going to be seen, supported, and celebrated. The festival contributes towards the development of films in Imo State by showcasing the best film on the continent and worldwide. The goal of the festival is not only to celebrate arts but also to create an incubation space to encourage and grow young people in film and art, especially in the State. They do this by establishing systems through which continuing film education is sustained.

ImoIFF aspires to bridge the gap between Imo State filmmakers, Cinemas and the World, providing the best global film knowledge, skill acquisition, training, and global film distribution opportunities for independent and aspiring filmmakers. The festival is run by young people, for young people, and aims to celebrate the next generation of Film and TV talent and increase access for under-represented people to careers in the media. The festival creates a lucrative industry economically and socially to preserve our national values through film.

The festival also boasts a distinguished jury panel comprising luminaries from the global film community, including Kayode Kasum, Linda Obasi, Goodnews Erico, Ozioma Nwughalu, and Art Arutyunyan.

ImoIFF’s advisory board includes Dr. Victor Okhai, Queen B. Ebigieson, Okey Ogunjiofor, Dr. Chika Onu, Chris Odeh, Amayo Uzo Phillip, Osita Iheme, Dr. Gloria Ernest Samuel, Dr. Ken Obiakor, and Obinna Okerekeocha
