STELLAR STORIES, ONE FESTIVAL

#GIFFEST2025 aims to showcase some of the most exceptional films from around the globe. GIFF began with its first virtual edition in 2020 to allow a larger audience to experience a diverse range of films, particularly the cinephiles in Pakistan who were starved of a curated lineup of films which exemplified stellar storytelling. For the last 5 years, GIFF has been providing filmmakers a chance to reach out to a global audience and showcase their talent internationally.

The 2025 edition is imminent, and GIFF is eagerly awaiting the submissions of your films. And we are looking forward to riding the waves of emotions brought forth through your remarkable stories.
