The Lebanese Outdoors Film Festival (LOFF), launched in 2020, is the first official outdoor sports film festival in Lebanon and the Arab world. It connects adventure, film, and sports, offering screenings, networking, and discussions with athletes, and filmmakers.
LOFF bridges a gap in the regional film scene, showcasing outdoor sports films that inspire and promote change. It merges the worlds of film and sports, bringing storytellers, athletes, and visionaries together in a vibrant space for connection, cultural exchange, and inspiring dialogue.
The festival highlights themes like physical movement, social change, nature conservation, and gender equality, motivating both individual and social growth. It also aims to raise awareness of Lebanon's natural beauty and the local sports community fostering environmental consciousness and addressing climate change.
As an independent film festival, we at LOFF are dedicated to showcasing films that align with our vision—free from advertisements and commercial influence. We focus on powerful personal stories, struggles, and healing journeys, all told through the lens of sports and life in the outdoors.
