Good news! After a long road of discovery and research, PIFF has officially moved into the Ethical Society suites. This is great news for many reasons! The first is that it provides filmmakers and creatives with a spot directly in the center of Philadelphia where they can use tools, locations, and meet with other creatives looking to “make” things. This space is being outfitted as a co-working space with A/V gear in ways not seen in the city. First, it’s a home theater, then it’s a venue for intimate sound and video, then it’s a meeting space for the 21st century.

PIFF is proud to move the needle, again, in the city for Independent filmmakers and storytellers. Join us and stop by! Come through during the 12am- 4pm hours (more hours added as we get acclimated) and work in a quiet yet vibrant community. —–> 1906 Rittenhouse Square, Philadelphia, PA 19103

Keep an eye on our socials for what’s next as we move in and do it LIVE! by Design!

New Jersey Commission on Holocaust Education recommends and distributes the film A Journey into the Holocaust to its 1,200 middle and high schools

* Every NJ teacher can receive a free copy of the Teacher’s Guide created for the film
* Every NJ teacher who uses the film will receive a free screening license
* Every NJ teacher has access to the educator’s only portion of the website

A Journey into the Holocaust, a documentary that attempts to answer why the Holocaust and other genocides happened and why they will continue to happen, has been accepted as an approved program to teach the Holocaust to New Jersey students. “We have approved and are recommending that teachers use this excellent film and Teacher’s Guide to help meet the state’s Holocaust education mandate” expressed New Jersey Commission on Holocaust Education Executive Director D. Paul Winkler.

Philadelphia Independent Film Festival #8
Submit here:Submit to festival #8.

NEWS ~ We are proud to take part in the upcoming Philly Tech Week April 17th – 25th, 2015. This is a huge move for us and we feel the gap left when the Philadelphia Film Festival left in April to move to October has never been filled. After years of people asking us to do just that – we are thrilled to take the leap. Submit here:Submit to festival #8.

We will screen for 8 days (3 more than previous years) and will have more events planned than usual – daily. These events include product demonstrations, roundtables, discussions, and of course gatherings. We will continue to provide ground floor opportunities to the local and international film community we serve and will never stray from our roots. Some people say we stick to close to our roots, well we do! Access for all is what we think a festival should be and our past years show this is what you all want. We hope to see you out.
