ORION International Film Festival is dedicated to finding original, thought-provoking films that push the boundaries of storytelling. The festival features a broad range of genres catering for many filmmakers. Founded in Australia, the ORION International Film Festival includes competitive categories and live screening events. It aims to recognise original and inspiring films by independent and new filmmakers. ORION IFF aims to identify and empower filmmakers across the Globe.
The 2022 ORION IFF will be holding two screening events in the picturesque Granite Belt Region of Southern Queensland, Australia. And Berlin, Germany's political and cultural capital.
Officially selected films and winners are chosen by an industry panel. All entries are judged based on six key areas: Originality, Production Values, Cinematography, Performances, Editing, and Sound Design.
