The Roma Independent Film Festival (RIFF) is Rome's first independent and international film festival.
For six full days and nights, the RIFF celebrates new European and international independent films from more than 25 countries. In addition to offering young filmmakers a chance to present their work to the general public at film screenings, the RIFF offers a series of special events designed to stimulate enthusiasm and create discussion, to include retrospectives, seminars and workshops on various aspects of the cinema, parties, exhibitions, collaborations with dance and theatre groups, music concerts and more. In order to encourage and assist filmmakers in their endeavors, the festival concludes with an awards ceremony, The RIFF Awards, which awards prizes of either monetary value or money in-kind. The winning films, in a number of categories, are chosen by an international jury of experts from various fields within the film industry.
