Canada’s International Film Festival is an online festival that takes place annually during the month of April. We welcome all filmmakers from different cultures who are located in Canada or around the world. CANIFF offers its winners the chance to gain further exposure while simultaneously building their portfolios, and showreels as they continue to learn, and grow within the film industry. As many enticing opportunities arise in the film industry, CANIFF will ensure assistance to its festival winners when creating a new film or simply helping offer the chance to take part in the global film industry.

Canada’s International Film Festival took the decision to be an online film festival when it realized that post-covid the film industry started to change drastically. COVID taught the workforce that the future of work will feature many employees working remotely. This inspired CANIFF as we wanted to ensure an equal opportunity to all of our winners by making our online film festival accessible worldwide. We are proud that our winners will all get a fair chance at attending our festival without experiencing any concerns over the costs of travel, and accommodation to attend our international film festival.

General rules:
I hereby agree that I have secured all the necessary rights for the picture and sound of the film above. The display, screening, and production will not infringe on any contractual rights including but not limited to music, images, and content. I grant Canada’s International Film Festival (CANIFF) the right to use and license my film for promotional use without restriction in terms of location. I confirm that I am the creator/author, owner/co-owner, distributor, or otherwise authorized representative of the film and am submitting with the intent for the film to be used in commercial settings in connection with its online screening. I am committing my film to be screened online with any entity that CANIFF has entered into a licensing agreement with and will not remove the film without the consent of CANIFF.

I grant permission to feature, advertise, display, and compile my film, in whole or part. I also grant CANIFF and its licensees, subject to the terms of the licensing agreement entered by CANIFF, the right to broadcast, or authorize other third parties the right to broadcast, portions of the film on local media outlets for promotional purposes. I grant CANIFF the right to use my name, image, and biographical materials of any individual associated with the film. I hereby protect, defend, and exclude CANIFF, its directors, members, employees, consultants, and agents from and against all claims, complaints, cause of action, liabilities, losses, costs, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of or in connection with claims and/or third-party claims based upon the film.

I am submitting my film to CANIFF for the purposes described above. This includes any breach of warranties or agreements stemming from proceedings of any kind against the CANIFF arising from or connected to transactional activity, (e.g., distribution, promotion, licensing, contemplated by this agreement). I understand and agree to these terms as evidenced by my signature below. This form supersedes all prior negotiations and agreements, oral or written. This agreement shall be governed in accordance with the provincial and federal copyright, trademark, and intellectual property law.

CANIFF may disqualify or reject, but is not required to do so, any submission that it determines, in its sole and absolute discretion would not be in CANIFF’s best interest to include in the Festival, including, but not limited to, any Film that is not in compliance, in whole or in part, with these Terms, and may do so without refunding any submission or other fees paid by the Registrant or returning any materials submitted by the Registrant. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if any person connected to the Film is involved in, or alleged to be involved in, any situation or occurrence which subjects such person to public scandal, disrepute, widespread contempt, or public ridicule, that violates CANIFF’s Code of Conduct, or that will tend to shock, insult or offend the community or public morals or decency, or prejudice CANIFF in general, then CANIFF shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to take any action it deems appropriate, including but not limited to excluding such person from attendance at the Festival and/or disqualifying the Film from participation in the Festival.
