The Panama International Film Festival presents the official program for its 14th edition: more than 40 films from Latin America, Central America and the Caribbean, Europe, Africa, and Asia, telling stories that resonate with us.
Stories that move you.
That transform you.
That stay with you long after they end.
For four days, the city becomes a meeting point where cinema connects cultures, perspectives, and people.
-that little wasp belt of the Americas that is synonymous with life and diversity, we decided to create a Festival and a Foundation dedicated to promoting the vital cinematographic wealth of Central America and the Caribbean, written with a “C” for Cinema.
Throughout eleven years of Foundation and ten of Festivals, we have:
Screened films from all the inhabited continents of the planet, with emphasis on Central America and the Caribbean;
Developed workshops, courses and master classes;
welcomed viewers inside and outside the film industry;
received national and international guests;
and established support and unique projects for Panama and the region, such as the Su Mirada and Primera Mirada funds, the IFF Panama Film Match co-production meeting, and the Cinema in Classrooms, Cinema Sanitas and Humanity in Virtual Reality initiatives.
