Thank you for coming to the festival website. We are currently in beta mode and are tinkering (as quickly as possible) with a few things. We hope to have most ironed out by May 16th. Any feed back in the meantime is encouraged. You can still see festival blogs, schedules, peek in to what’s going on in the world of global/local independent cinema, purchase tickets, engage unique artists, slip into offsite worlds, and then catch up at the festival. Please follow and join in the conversation or start one @Philaindie on IG and Twitter, YouTube, Tumblr, wherever.

As the schedule irons out please remember all tickets are General Admission (GM). Please make sure to get to screenings early (15 minutes). Screenings will sell out. Visit the ticket booth now to support the festival and purchase: FESTIVAL TICKETS.

Some of our venues are small – 34 and 72 seats. Our largest is 280. Enjoy the experience. Engage the artists before they engage you! We are all working to provide a unique audio visual experience.

Thank you for creating with us for the past year. Curating the festival, we say year after year, is often the best part of this journey. It’s an incredible honor to meet so many dedicated people creating sensory based stories. We’ll have more soon. Please follow and join in the conversation or start one @Philaindie on IG and Twitter, YouTube, Tumblr, wherever.

Thanks again –

The PIFF #16 team
