The Maryland Film Festival -- April 29 to May 3, 2020 Now in its 22nd year, The Maryland Film Festival is dedicated to building a world-class film festival centered in Baltimore, pioneering diverse film programming, and supporting the national cause of film preservation. In May 2017, rebranded as MdFF, the organization opened the newly restored Stavros Niarchos Foundation Parkway, a historic cinema that is now the year-round home of the festival, providing a space year-round to present independent, international, documentary, classic & cult-favorite films!
