Siné Filmfest and Industry Conference (SFF) is the first Filipino film festival in Canada dedicated to showcasing Filipino creativity and ingenuity through film and storytelling. Its mission is to foster a dynamic environment for film appreciation, discovery and dialogue.
SFF is the flagship event of Siné Institute, a Canadian-based not-for-profit organization for new and emerging Filipino artists and influential leaders in the creative industries.
The first Siné Filmfest and Industry Conference was held April 2024 coinciding with the 75th Anniversary of Philippine-Canadian Bilateral Relations. From thought-provoking documentaries to captivating narratives, Sine Filmfest aims to inspire, challenge and entertain audiences. The festival also provides a unique platform for Filipino filmmakers to gain North American market exposure and connect with potential distributors, investors and collaborators.
