Established in 2010, Seoul Metro International subway Film Festival(SMIFF) holds its 14th edition this year. SMIFF's selected films will be screened at metro stations, on screens of subways and official online theater. The most attractive thing to submit your film to SMIFF is that once selected, Korean citizens can watch and resonate with your film while living their daily lives. Except for the ESG Special Competition, all winners are selected by online voters.

SMIFF cooperates with ShinhanCard and SUBTRAVELLING Barcelona.

* All winners except for a winner of ESG special competition are chosen through an online vote at the festival's website from August 17th to September 13th, 2023.
