About AIFF Partners

AIFF Partners is a one-of-a-kind co-production/co-financing market that takes place every September in Halifax, NS (CA).

AIFF Partners presents a “best in class” selection of dramatic feature film projects, television, and digital fiction series, including projects at all stages of development looking for essential partnerships and financing. AIFF Partners is three days of pre-scheduled one-to-one meetings, roundtable sessions, panels and networking events, all set against the backdrop of the Atlantic International Film Festival. Maritime charm and an intimate setting, ideal for creating partnerships make us a favorite stop of our esteemed delegates.

A stage with five people sitting in chairs, they are in a line facing the audience in front of them. The person in middle is speaking, the rest have their heads turned towards them listening. The audience sits at round tables with white tablecloths.
