NYC GREEK FILM FESTIVAL

The NYCGRFF’s mission is to promote Greek filmmaking in the U.S. Its program of events in selected venues in New York includes films produced or co-produced in Greece and Cyprus, as well as, as of this year and in an online only section, non-Greek films that have an element of Greekness such as a Greek story (on a social or historical level); or a Greek (or of Greek origins) director; or Greek actors in the main cast; or Greek artists and professionals in main technical aspects; or film locations mainly in Greece; or funding from Greek sources. The NYCGRFF continues its successful course for the thirteenth year by setting new goals for an even stronger international presence. Starting this year, the NYCGRFF will introduce an international section that will run online only. International features, documentaries and short films with a main element of Greekness (as mentioned above) will be included, as well as exclusively international short films (both fiction and documentaries). While our primary mission remains to promote Greek filmmaking in the U.S., we look forward to creating new opportunities for international co-operations, on both technical and artistic levels, among all participating filmmakers.
