The Annual Toyama International Film Festival (TIFF) was created a decade ago by a handful of English teachers. Ignited by a passion for films and a desire to connect communities, our committee hoped to one day reach a great number of people—and with time, we were able to do just that.
Every year, we reach out to the rest of the world and challenge everyone to produce short films to help create a film culture in our beautiful, countryside prefecture of Toyama. We receive over 3,000 films yearly. After careful screening, we’ve narrowed everything down to bring you the best of the best. Our team hopes to hold the event for many years to come, with your continued help.
富山国際短編映画祭 (TIFF)は、十年前に何人かの外国語の先生が立ち上げました。私達は、富山からの映画文化と国際理解の発展に貢献していきたいと考えています。小さな映画祭から始まりましたが、今では世界各国から3,000作品もの映画が応募されるほど、富山の代表的な国際イベントになりました。
富山国際映画祭の将来的なビジョンは、世界的にも認知してもらえるくらい大きなイベントにしていくことです
ABOUT US
The first film festival took place in 2012, inside a small room within a shopping center where 70 people watched the ten submissions we had received. The following year, we hoped to reach people not just in Japan, but around the globe. And we surely did. Quite a step from only 10 submissions, we received over 100 submissions from 30 different countries. The physical screening was held in Toyama City at a local, independently-owned venue, Bodegas-Mambo, where over 80 guests attended to view films. We considered it a tremendous success.
In the decade following, the number of submissions and attendees only continued to grow. Every year, we reach out to the rest of the world and challenge everyone to produce short films to help create a film culture in our beautiful, countryside prefecture of Toyama. Our team hopes to hold the event for many years to come, with your continued help.
The 11th Annual Toyama International Film Festival (TIFF) took place June 15th, 2024 in Toyama City, Toyama Prefecture, Japan. An exciting event and continued success within the local community, our international reach means we get thousands of submissions from all over the world! Our team is excited to once again share the visions of filmmakers across the globe with our humble community in countryside Japan.
