Get ready to experience a new kind of film festival, from your trusted friends at the Canadian Film Institute, in Ottawa.
IFFO was founded by the Canadian Film Institute in response to the City’s growing production industry. With the City of Ottawa building its first soundstage campus (movie studios) and Algonquin College introducing a film production program to its roster, there is a burgeoning industry that will be supported by this dynamic new film festival. A key industry event is the IFFO Screen Summit, which brings together professionals in the live-action production community for an exchange of information and expertise. Screen Summit is designed for a specialized audience in screen-based content creation, development, production, post-production and distribution.
