About AIFF
The Arjuntala International Film Festival (AIFF) is a monthly film competition that leads to an annual event in South 24 Paraganas, West Bengal. The best film from each monthly contest gets to be shown at our live event and our respected jury selects an overall winner. We’ve designed monthly editions to maintain a consistent selection process and provide filmmakers with regular feedback. When a film is chosen, we contact the filmmakers right away. Their work is screened privately each month and assessed by a team of industry experts. The projects that are officially selected each month receive the Arjuntala International Film Festival laurel and certificate in recognition of their achievement.
