The 44th edition of the Atlantic International Film Festival (AIFF) is pleased to announce its 2024 award winners.

Exemplified by much of this year’s AIFF program: filmmakers and musicians seem to be growing more conversant. Their combined energies can result in new horizons on both sides.

Critical 2024 Atlantic International Film Festival updated including location changes, guest updates and added or removed screenings.

AIFF Partners Special guests Matthew Rankin and Sook-Yin Lee and more to be part of the 2024 Atlantic International Film Festival program of events.

Even if you haven’t seen Edward Yang’s films, there’s a good chance you’ve absorbed some of his images — a young boy eating a Happy Meal beside his exhausted father, a couple’s silhouettes backlit by a neon Fujifilm sign.

This year AIFF was thrilled to welcome back our team of programmers, members of the film community whose dedicated and thoughtful work has shaped this fantastic program.

AIFF is proud to announce the 2024 program, showcasing 96 feature and short films at Halifax’s Cineplex Cinemas Park Lane from Wednesday, September 11 to Wednesday, September 18.

In my mind, content brought to you by a film festival is like being shown a tray of assorted valuable gems. Urgency exists in witnessing their brilliance before they are ushered away.
