Klamath Independent Film Festival

***Please see Rules & Terms below to obtain free submission fee waivers!*** **KIFF has a K-12 student prize category! See Rules & Terms below for more information** The Klamath Independent Film Festival is the premier Oregon-centric all-genre film festival, receiving more Oregon film submissions and giving more screen time to Oregon films & filmmakers (and our very northerly California neighbors!) than any other festival. In 2020 KIFF gained national attention as the only fall film festival able of welcoming an in-theater audience during the COVID-19 pandemic, and took it one step further presenting the festival in a hybrid model via the Eventive Virtual Festival platform. Activities at the event were livestreamed, while films were available on-demand with exclusive Q&As with each filmmaker. In 2021 KIFF will be even bigger, once again presenting the event in a hybrid format with improved interactive experiences connecting audiences to films and filmmakers. Back by popular demand will be the unique art pieces as each award winning category, custom designed to each winning film! KIFF films and award-winners are selected by a three-level multi-person jury consisting of filmmakers, film experts, film fanatics and Klamath residents to ensure a non-biased, balanced exhibition which celebrates films for film's sake in a way even general audiences can appreciate. Real films selected by real people, for real audiences to enjoy!
