Hawaii International Film Festival's Interests
General
International cinema, Asian and Pacific Rim films, American Indies, Latin American films, Pacific Islanders and Oceania, and European cinema... Using film as a bridge to connect different cultures and people. To bridge industry and commerce with international, independent cinema... And to meet ppl who love film and know how to party!
About me: The Hawaii International Film Festival debuted in 1981 as a project of the East-West Center, an educational and research institution created by U.S. Congress and located on the University of Hawai..i Manoa campus in Honolulu. Since then, HIFF has been dedicated to the advancement of understanding and cultural exchange among the peoples of Asia, the Pacific and North America through the medium of film. The first HIFF screened seven films from six countries to an audience of 5,000. Today, it is a state-wide event and the only one of its kind in the U.S. It has more than one dozen screening sites on six Hawaiian Islands and draws an audience of 65,000 or more from around the state, the nation and throughout the world.
If you're interested in volunteering, or even an internship with us, check out the opportunities.
