Introduction the 57th Chicago International Film Festival

Welcome to the 57th Chicago International Film Festival, North America’s longest-running competitive film festival. This year’s Festival features screenings in theaters, at the drive-in, and streaming virtually to your home. We’re thrilled to screen over 80 films and more than 60 shorts films from around the world, ranging from heart-wrenching dramas to eye-opening documentaries to midnight shockers!

Looking for the complete film festival experience? Attend special filmmaker Tributes, filmmaker Q & A’s, or register for our Industry Days program for filmmakers.
