2020 will be a new, exciting and expanded film festival. We’re going virtual! Films from independent, award-winning filmmakers from 21 countries: BELGIUM, BRAZIL, CANADA, CHINA, FRANCE, GERMANY, GREECE, HONDURAS, INDIA, INDONESIA, IRAN, ISRAEL, JAPAN, NIGERIA, RUSSIA, SPAIN, SRI LANKA, TUNISIA, UNITED KINGDOM, UKRAINE AND THE USA.

You will see narratives, documentaries, LGBTQ films, animations and comedies. Our diverse collection of films will uplift and amaze you.

We are so proud of our multicultural films, and hope that viewing these short brilliant little gems will provide a better understanding and appreciation for different cultures, lifestyles, and the people living on planet Earth.

Now more than ever, small independent film festivals are crucial to the cultural landscape of our city. By supporting SSIFF to take creative risks, we allow filmmakers to grow and thrive. Our filmmakers come from all over the world and are able to see how they live, how they experience the world around them which could be so different from our little corner of the earth.

Sherry Gamlin, Festival Director, and the team at SSIFF
