Camden International Film Festival 2023

The Camden International Film Festival takes place this September and it is unquestionably one of the most powerful experiences held in Maine each year. In fact, this is the 19th year of showcasing and celebrating independent documentaries in the state.

But the reach of CIFF has transcended Maine’s borders. CIFF has come to be recognized across the world as one of the most important stops on the film festival circuit, with one of the most adventurous programs to be found anywhere.

This year there will be 32 feature films and 22 short films from 38 countries. Additionally, there will be 14 feature films and 8 shorts with significant premiers. If you are a film and documentary lover, this is a must-attend experience.

This year's CIFF will offer an array of options enabling participants to choose their own adventure: in person from September 14 to 17 throughout venues in the Camden, and Rockland area and virtually from September 18 to 25. They have a variety of ticket and pass options that allow attendees to really customize their 2023 CIFF experience.
