CWIFF is a quarterly film event that runs with and for various institutions and societies which is specifically created to help independent filmmakers and groups to raise their awareness about the kind of films made in the world.. Not only we run as a Festival but as well provide a means to filmmakers to learn from their seniors from around the world.

BIG NEWS: This is the best Season to submit your film to the festival as CWIFF is hosting a larger-than-life film festival where winners, including all previous seasons, are not only being given entries at a huge discount but as well a dedicated entry to the competitive round. Along with that, all films will be given a chance to be featured on CWIFF's Studio platform for free.

Filmmakers competing in CWIFF are not bound to any condition which requires them not to show their films anywhere else. Rather awarded films will be given priority over others as it being the purpose of our festival to educate through the best (which again is subjective). Still, all decisions will be taken by the jury and they will decide which films be granted submission for the festival.

Today you have the chance to become mentor to many. Submit your film to #CW and become one.

Note:

1. It is the sole right of the festival to select and reject the film they want and the Jury's decision remains confidential always.

2. For any queries, please contact the spokesperson of the festival. Mail is what we personally prefer and quick at.

3. Films on the elderly, children, and women will be awarded separately.

The Toronto International Nollywood Film Festival (TINFF) is a film festival that embraces diversity and inclusivity! TINFF is a Telefilm Canada and IMDb-qualifying film festival. https://www.imdb.com/event/ev0010686/2019/1

The Toronto International Film Festival (TINFF) invites you to come to enjoy the diversity that brings local and international films, filmmakers, and artists to the beautiful city of Toronto every year.

The objective of TINFF is to be a prominent film festival in Toronto that celebrates the diversity that defines our beautiful city. The primary goal is to advance creative, independent filmmaking through diversity, innovation, and uniqueness by capturing a series of movements and experiences in a single film. We support, screen, and present music and films from around the world in order to help them find an audience and diversify the film industry as a whole.

The festival's programs and activities will initiate programs that address the capacity building of its organizational structure and personnel while also investing heavily in the development of its stakeholder group and providing support for strategic activities that address major challenges and opportunities.

This year's festival and activity projects will include conferences, screenings with Q&A, live music performances, stage plays, and dance, as well as several audience development activities involving workshop training and mentorship programs in various capacities geared toward increasing workforce capacity and putting diversity and inclusion at the center of its annual program and objectives.

The CBDFM Summit:

As part of the annual festival program, the TINFF-Market, also known as the "Canada Black & Diversity Film Market," will focus on business development, providing support to organizations for business-to-business (B2B) industry activities and business-to-consumer (B2C) audience development activities that bring opportunities for new business leads, collaboration, sales, distribution, and relationships.

Our programs and activities will be offered in three phases to ensure effective planning and execution:

• Festival programs will feature, among other things, screenings with Q&A, interviews, conferences, and seminars.
• Workshops and Training, Mentorship, and Masterclasses: Bridging the Gap in Skills Development Programs
• Acquisitions, networking, production collaboration, negotiations, sales, exhibition screenings, meetings (one-on-one or group meetings), and conferences are all part of the Film Market Summit.

Our initiatives, as a creative hub for filmmakers and industry stakeholders, are geared toward developing opportunities for all Canadians and international filmmakers and stakeholders, with a focus on the marginalized Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) groups.

The Toronto International Nollywood Film Festival (TINFF) is a year-round award competition and live screening festival held in Toronto each year. Every year, we hold a festival event and an award ceremony to celebrate diversity in film. We warmly welcome filmmakers from all around the world to Toronto.

Following the announcement and notification of the Official Selected Films, we will go on to the next stage of the selection process and announce the TINFF Festival Finalists who will compete at the live festival event in Toronto. The names of all Finalists will be published on the TINFF festival website and on the TINFF Facebook page.

TINFF is a music and film festival with an awards ceremony that honours and fosters filmmakers by recognizing, promoting, challenging, and building knowledge of equality, social justice, non-discrimination, diversity, and multiculturalism.

El Festival de Cine Ibero-Latino Americano de Trieste es organizado por APCLAI
(“Associazione per la Promozione della Cultura Latino Americana in Italia”) y es el único
festival de cine enteramente dedicado a la cinematografía latinoamericana en Italia y, con
sus 37 ediciones, uno de los dos festivales de cine latinoamericano más longevos en
Europa.

La XXXVIII Edición del Festival se celebrará del 4 al 12 de Noviembre 2023 en forma híbrida: presencial y online (solo en el Concurso Efilm, España). El Festival tendrá como sede principal el Cine “Teatro Miela” de Trieste, donde serán presentadas el 80% de las obras. Será además Online solo en el caso de una emergencia Covid.
Solo disposiciones de ley -en el desafortunado caso de que una eventual nueva ola pandémica determine un cierre de las salas de cine en Italia en las fechas del Festival- obligarán a la Dirección del Festival a desplazar la parte presencial inevitablemente online. Si llegara a producirse tal escenario, a las obras que solo habían optado a la participación a la parte presencial del Festival se les enviará un módulo
para señalar con qué geolocalización autorizan la participación online: solo Italia
(autorización mínima obligatoria) / Italia + Europa / Italia + Europa + Tres Américas.

Estas últimas dos son optativas. También se podrá limitar el número de reproducciones que la obra pueda tener, siendo 500 el máximo establecido
por la Dirección del Festival. Las comunicaciones de limitación geográfica y de pases online se realizarán mediante el correo apclai@yahoo.it
