Welcome to FIFF

Fribourg International Film Festival aims to promote the understanding between cultures through films. It gives preferences to productions that stimulate reflection and provoke discussion. Our Festival shines a light on blind spots, reveals new talents and put the history of cinema in context with exclusiv approaches.

Planète Cinéma, the FIFF’s school programme, presents a selection of films that are appropriate for a young audience and embrace all levels of education, from primary school kids to high school students. The programme offers an unique opportunity to discover the international cinematographic diversity. Thanks to encounters with directors and film makers from all over the world, the youngsters are able to gain insights into different approaches of filmmaking and learn how to analyse movies.
