AIFF 2019

Anchorage International Film Festival - AIFF 2019
Part 1: What's Happening Today?  

Dec 29, 2019 - The festival has been over a couple of weeks now.  

The Awards have been awarded and you can see the list of winners here.

Just want to let people know that Netflix has picked up one of the better films of the festival, one I thought should have gotten an award - The Body Remembers When The World Broke Open.

    I'm working on updating some of these tips pages from previous years.
    AIFF-2019-Questions (and-answers) People Should Be Asking About The Festival   The ins and outs of the festival.  How to find films, get tickets, find free activities, should you get a pass? how to use Festival Genius, and lots, lots more tips on getting around the festival. 



    Part 3:  Films In Competition  (No 'films in competition' are being labeled as such this year.  All films selected are eligible for awards.  I will try to pick out some that look interesting to me to highlight and some others more randomly.  In the meantime, this link takes you to the list of  the pictures selected this year

    I'll probably ditch this box, but I'll leave it for the time being.

    Meanwhile, you can see all the films that were selected to be in the festival here.
