Alameda International Film Festival

Alameda International Film Festival Alameda International Film Festival brings cutting-edge, independent cinema from around the world to the San Francisco Bay.

The Alameda International Film Festival (AIFF) was launched in 2016 by the executive producers of The Long Day Short Film Festival, which began in Alameda in 2008 and ran for 7 years. The goal of AIFF is quite the same as its forebear: to bring new and innovative film to audiences in Alameda. However, AIFF can achieve much more than the previous festival ever could. Multiple categories, including

long-form shorts and feature films, beget multiple programs at multiple venues on multiple days. The film scene in Alameda is growing and growing with the AIFF as the driver. AIFF is a project of Anchor, a new Alameda arts organization.

Check out this local indie doc "Home Court" screening at a variety of Bay Area locations, including at the Alameda Theatre on Wednesday 11/13 @ 7PM. Don't miss this community event!

Filmed over three years, Home Court is a coming-of-age story that follows a Cambodian American basketball phenom's family dynamics, both tender and tragic, as she navigates being one of the top basketball recruits in the country.

To the Supporters of the Alameda International Film Festival:

We regret to announce that the Alameda International Film Festival will not take place in 2025 as the festival producers and the Alameda Theatre were unable to reach an agreement on an equitable rental rate. AIFF's producers feel strongly that since bringing the festival to the Theatre in 2022, it represents the only appropriate venue in our City. As such, we will need to suspend AIFF at this time.

We would like to express our gratitude to all of our supporters. Many of you have been attending for more than a decade, have volunteered your homes for visiting filmmakers, have provided invaluable resources, staffing, business partnerships, sponsorship, and more. We could not be more grateful for the community engagement and investment in AIFF. Above all, thank you to all the wonderful filmmakers who have participated in AIFF -- without you there would be no festival.

Our non-profit, Anchor Alameda Assoc. for Art & Film, will continue to sponsor and produce local arts events, so please check out AnchorAlameda.org to see any upcoming events.

Thanks again!

Sincerely,
The Entire AIFF Team
