Amsterdam International Filmmaker Festival of World Cinema 2019 will be hosted in Amsterdam.

The Amsterdam International Filmmaker Festival of World Cinema is one of the greatest and most popular festivals in Europe. This naturally fills our festival with a wealth of talent from around the world.

For over 12 years in our other festivals, we have been helping filmmakers find distribution and funding for their next filmmaking venture. Year after year, we are praised by filmmakers for the opportunities that unlock upon entering and participating in our festival.

There is ample opportunity to attend networking events, industry professional talk panels, workshops, guest speaker events, film premieres, financing talks, director Q&A's, film screenings and to socialize with like-minded creatives from all walks of life. All of this is neatly wrapped in a week-long showcasing of films where our strong community supports any and every film, from first-time artists to seasoned creators.

Our prestigious awards ceremony concludes the festival in high fashion with a 5-course gala dinner to celebrate our nominees and winners.

We are a unique festival that provides a real platform for filmmakers to meet, network and do business during the festival week.

We have built a small but exceptional network of industry professionals that will look at all films entered and will give business and commercial advice. We have many success stories where attending distributors have made offers to the filmmakers, launching them and their work into the marketplace. We have the people and skills in our professional team to make this happen.

We can create a ripple for your movie to be seen around the world. It all starts here by entering today

This will truly be a unique festival, giving filmmakers a real platform to meet, network, do business and, of course, watch great films.

Prestigious International Trophy Award!

We draw our festival to a close with our glamorous international gala dinner and awards ceremony where a nominee from each category goes home with a golden trophy award as recognition for their achievements and talents in film.
