ABOUT THE FESTIVALThe mission of the Franklin International Indie Film Festival (FIIFF) is to celebrate independent film, discover new creative forces in the industry, and promote Middle Tennessee as an outstanding location for award winning projects to thrive. On behalf of Williamson County Cultural Arts Commission, the greater Williamson County and Nashville film community, Tennessee Entertainment Commission, our sponsors, staff and volunteers, welcome to the 2019 FIIFF. For our community of filmmakers, film-workers, TV producers and Animators, we bring together collaborators as well as many industry influencers. With talk-back opportunities and meet ups with the filmmakers, you can understand the perspective and process of each. Our panels and workshops provide useable information and honest answers to help creatives move forward on their journey.
Our film entries incorporate stories based on universal challenges such as relationships, the family, the environment, diversity, and how we live in our worlds today…humanity is recognized and celebrated at FIIFF.
