University of Guam Film Festival - Spring Local Showcase

The 2016 University of Guam Film Festival (UOGFF) Spring Local Showcase is a launching pad for original work made exclusively in the Mariana Islands. Top selected films will go on to vie for the Best Made in the Marianas honors at the Guam International Film Festival (GIFF) signature fall event in September 2016. There are no entry fees for submission into the UOGFF Spring Local Showcase. The UOG Communication program and GIFF creative staff encourage filmmakers of any level (student, amateur or professional) from the Mariana Islands to submit works of any genre. Community. Education. Entertainment. The mission of the Guam International Film Festival is to foster cultural understanding through the art of cinema. GIFF achieves this through community outreach, education through festival workshops and efforts to build awareness for social responsibility through our film programming. In addition, GIFF aims to provide opportunities for employment and local businesses to flourish through international cinema and industry related businesses.
