Celebrating its 16th year, the 2011 International Family Film Festival will be held at Raleigh Studios in the heart of Hollywood, 5300 Melrose Avenue, March 16 - March 20.  This year’s theme is Films are Evergreen .

The festival was founded in 1993 to educate, cultivate, and elevate the family film genre by advocating and encouraging the creation and sharing of family films and screenplays through film exhibition, panels, networking and screenplay readings.

The IFFF has a target audience of Filmmakers, Producers, Distributors, Press, Critics, Industry, Small Businesses, Families and Kids (reaching over 6,200+ families in the Los Angeles area).  To further define the family film genre, IFFF has introduced a new ratings system: CH – Children 12 and Under, GA – General Audience and MA – Mature Audience.  This system breaks the old-school idea that family film means film-lite and guarantees something for everyone at the IFFF.

We hope you’ll peruse our website and discover all that is being offered at the 2011 IFFF, become a member and get your tickets early.  We’ll see you at the movies!
