5th Addis International Film Festival

The Addis International Film Festival is held annually in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. The festival is organized by Initiative Africa, an organization dedicated to improving education. It is the largest independent documentary cinema festival in Africa.

AIFF also supports the development of emerging talent, providing educational and networking opportunities, outreach training schemes and a structured internship and volunteer programmes all year. The Festival itself is an exciting forum for new talent to meet established filmmakers and producers and buyers.

This year the festival presents a selection of more than 100 documentary films from around the world.

The Festival is supported in parts through grants from international donors and private and community sponsors.

The 2011 Festival will be held from the 23rd to 26th of June.
