Our Story
BFS is the organizer of the Brooklyn Film Festival (BFF), which is now getting ready for the 24th annual event. BFF is the most important event BFS organizes.
The next festival will run from June 4-13, 2021. By March 10, final submission deadline, BFF will start finalizing the program selection locking roughly 140-150 films. 40 film programs and a few special events will be presented in various exhibition formats including both virtual and outdoor screenings. Depending on the city of NY rules that will be in place in June, we may be able to show film programs indoor as well.
The Brooklyn Film Festival (BFF), is an International, competitive festival. BFF’s mission is to provide a public forum in Brooklyn in order to advance public interest in films and the independent production of films; to draw worldwide attention to Brooklyn as a center for cinema; to encourage the rights of all Brooklyn residents to access and experience the power of independent filmmaking; and to promote artistic excellence and the creative freedom of artists without censure. BFF, inc. is a 501 (c)(3) not-for-profit organization.
BFF is a festival for and by independent filmmakers. The organizers of BFF bring 24 years of festival experience to this annual event. BFF accepts submissions in six categories: Narrative Feature, Documentary Feature, Short Narrative, Short Documentary, Experimental, and Animation. Submissions are open from July to March of the following year and the final selection of 140-150 films is announced in early May. The film festival takes place in June. Selected films in each category are eligible for several awards. In addition to our lineup of films, the festival also hosts multiple filmmaker parties and networking events (in person and/or online)
