The Chico Independent Film Festival (CIFF) is an annual event that celebrates independent filmmaking in Chico, California. The festival typically takes place over the course of several days and features a diverse selection of independent films from around the world.

CIFF showcases films that explore a wide range of themes and genres, including drama, comedy, documentary, and experimental cinema. The festival is known for its commitment to supporting emerging filmmakers and highlighting underrepresented voices and perspectives.

In addition to film screenings, CIFF typically includes panel discussions, Q&A sessions with filmmakers, and other events that give audiences the opportunity to engage with the films and the people behind them. The festival also offers awards in various categories, including Best Feature Film, Best Short Film, and Audience Choice.

The Chico Independent Film Festival is a community-driven event that brings together filmmakers, film enthusiasts, and local businesses in support of independent cinema. The festival provides a platform for filmmakers to showcase their work and connect with audiences, and it offers audiences the opportunity to discover new and exciting voices in cinema.

I liked this festival and what they accomplished in a short period of time. I just think that they should have communicated the film links a little better. It was virtual so its tough to do that sometimes. But overall I would enter again!
