Glendale International Film Festival
How it works
This is the SEVENTH year of the exciting national and international film festival in the beautiful City of Glendale, California. The mission of the Glendale International Film Festival (GIFF) is to integrate the film makers and screenwriting arts into the identity, growth and economic vitality of the City of Glendale by presenting an annual film festival which benefits student film makers and screenwriters as well as helps independent filmmakers, artists and musicians showcase their work and get exposure from major studios and industry professionals. We have been awarded many honors from the 43rd Assembly District California State Legislature Assemblymember Laura Friedman and California State Senate Senator Anthony J. Portantino as well as former Mayor Vartan Gharpetian.
The Glendale International Film Festival is a California non-profit organization operating as a 501 (c)(3) tax-exempt corporation.
