The Broward County Film Society is committed to showcasing and celebrating the best in independent, foreign and documentary films. BCFS presents the annual Fort Lauderdale International Film Festival; operates Savor Cinema in Fort Lauderdale and Cinema Paradiso in Hollywood, two year-round arthouse cinemas that screen the same great films audiences expect from FLiFF almost every day of the year; offers FLiFF OnDemand virtual cinema so that audiences can stream festival-worthy films from home; produces satellite festivals—from St. Augustine to the Bahamas to the Arctic Circle and beyond,—and a variety of cinema-centered experiences through FLiFF On Location; and provides educational programming, resources, and recognition to emerging filmmakers via FutureMakers.
The mission of the Broward County Film Society is to bring people together year-round, using cinema to educate, relate, and empower. Our goal is to foster and celebrate visual storytellers, from South Florida and around the world, leveraging the power of the moving picture to inspire audiences and elevate communities.
