Okanagan International Film Festival (OKIFF) is dedicated to bringing the world to the Okanagan through film and sharing that experience with the community that calls it home. This will be a Gathering of Cinema, Culture and Creativity.
Set in British Columbia’s Okanagan Valley, OKIFF curates a dynamic selection of international and Canadian independent cinema, showcasing bold storytelling across narrative, documentary, short-form, and experimental categories. The festival is built on the belief that film connects cultures, sparks conversation, and strengthens community.
Within the festival is the Okanagan TV &Film Industry Forum. Through screenings, filmmaker Q&As, masterclasses with industry leaders, workshops and community-driven events, OKIFF creates space for global voices to meet local audiences, fostering meaningful dialogue between creators and viewers alike.
OKIFF is not only a platform for filmmakers, but a cultural bridge, expanding perspectives while cultivating a vibrant and growing film community in Western Canada.
