It aims towards connecting people from diverse and rich cultural hubs of the world. SIFF organizes annual award ceremonies, provides film distribution opportunities, and builds an ever-growing active network of independent filmmakers worldwide. We support independent filmmakers to grow their career in this highly competitive field by showcasing their films in a global platform earning them recognitions and rewards.
SIFF is a monthly film festival. This film festival is held every month selecting award winners to compete for the grand prize at its Annual Yearly Gala event.
In Southeast Asia, Singapore has emerged as a prime place for film production. With a slew of media companies setting up offices, Singaporean names are emerging in the film industry and television industry. With high-profile events and conferences on the rise, Lion City is quickly becoming a global force in the increasingly high-staking game of content creation. For our filmmakers, it is vital that their film gets screened within some of the most famous thriving film business-oriented metropolitan cities of the world.
Each month more than 50 films from the different categories are officially selected and out of them, at least one per category is awarded. All these monthly award winners are automatically qualified for the annual live film screening gala in the Lion City and can be nominated for the prestigious Best of the Best Awards. The annual event is a glamorous red-carpet premiere with press conferences and gala parties in Singapore, in the presence of international movie celebrities and media. The participants have excellent opportunities to exchange their ideas, ideologies and cultural diversities. The award winners have a chance to meet with the film audience and participate in film industry Q&A session after the film screening for a healthy discussion about the film.
