42nd Cleveland International Film Festival
April 4 - 15, 2018

The Cleveland International Film Festival (CIFF) believes that it is the most fortunate non-profit arts organization around. We have a community that trusts in, and is dedicated to, our program. And we have an art form (film) that is easily accessible and comfortably affordable. Additionally, we are proud to do our work and present our program within the City of Cleveland (our offices are located in Ohio City and our flagship program takes place in the heart of downtown Cleveland).

The CIFF is launched each year with an Opening Night Film and Gala on a Wednesday night in March. Following Opening Night, over 500 screenings of films are exhibited in ten theaters at Tower City Cinemas in downtown Cleveland (and a series of neighborhood locations) from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 midnight (and even later on weekends) for the next 11 days.
