Camden International Film Festival

Annual documentary film festival along the rugged coast of Maine. The 9th annual Camden International Film Festival will take place September 26 - 29, 2013. Camden is recognized as one of the top 25 documentary film festivals in the world, one of the 12 best small town film festivals in the US (PBS), and New England's most repsected documentary event. Each year we screen 70+ features and shorts and bring in filmmakers from all over the world. Aside from film screenings, we're known to throw some pretty unique parties and other special events. CIFF is also the home to the Points North Documentary Forum, a two day conference component highlighting professional development and creative inspiration for emerging fimmakers and media artists. Since 2005 we've been bringing small towns, big films.
