The 58th San Francisco International Film Festival: April 23 - May 7, 2015

Founded in 1957, the San Francisco International Film Festival (SFIFF) is the longest-running film festival in the Americas. Held each spring for two weeks, SFIFF is an extraordinary showcase of cinematic discovery and innovation, featuring some 150 films and events with more than 100 filmmakers in attendance, and nearly two dozen awards presented for excellence in film craft.
The Festival has already announced this year‰'s slate of feature-length narrative and documentary competition films. This year, nineteen incredible stories from across the globe are in contention for nearly $40k in prizes.
Highlights include Sundance Documentary Grand Jury Prize winner The Wolfpack; The Iron Ministry, a new doc from the Harvard Sensory Ethnography Lab about China and its railways; and Vincent, a charming, magical realist film from France about a drifter who discovers he is in possession of unique powers. Ticket packages are currently on sale at sffs.org/tickets.
