As we say goodbye to HIFF34, we want to take a moment to thank you to our event sponsors.

From hand-crafted cocktails, to experiences you can only find at HIFF, our sponsors inspired conversation and connection between films and events over the 11-day festival.

Thanks to all, and cheers to next year!

The Hamptons International Film Festival has proudly bestowed close to five million dollars in its 34-year history. This year, HamptonsFilm continued to present emerging filmmakers with numerous awards, with special events taking place throughout the duration of the festival.

“Congratulations to this year’s award winners, whose films stayed with our audiences long after the credits rolled,” said HamptonsFilm Chief Creative Officer David Nugent. “From LA BOLA NEGRA, our jury’s pick for Best Narrative Feature, to ELSINORE, which won over our audiences, this year’s honorees brought stories from around the world and right here on Long Island to the East End. Many of these films are heading into awards season with real momentum, and we’re proud the Hamptons is once again part of that journey. We’re deeply grateful to everyone who makes the festival possible, including our filmmakers, jurors, sponsors, board, staff, volunteers and, of course, our audiences.”

Yesterday, we honored longtime actor, filmmaker, and HIFF board member & friend Bob Balaban with our Lifetime Achievement Award.

Prior to a special screening of BEST IN SHOW, Bryan Cranston presented Bob with the award at Guild Hall.

Later, we celebrated at The Hedges Inn 🐕 with remarks from Susie Essman and more friends and family of Bob.

We are so grateful for Bob’s decades of meaningful contributions to the Hamptons International Film Festival, and to the industry at large. ⭐️
