Incredible depth and breadth of film submissions this year.

Over the last week or so, as submission deadlines approached, literally hundreds of films have come in from all over the world. Our friends at KidsFirst in the USA at the Taiwan International Children's Film Festival have been incredibly supportive with a wide range of incredible submissions now being viewed.

We have also received films from Taiwan, Australia, China, India, Malaysia, Japan, Russia, Canada, Dominican Republic, Kenya and across Europe with a few more expected.

Combined with films from across the UK, especially new groups of filmmakers in the Hastings and Rother area, we have been blown away by the creativity and the quality of the films we have received.

General submission has now closed, but should you wish to submit a film for consideration then do please get in touch with the team via email on info@ciffest.org.
