"Atlantic Canada's curator of epic and unforgettable stories."FIN Atlantic International Film Festival is an eight-day celebration of film, media and music from around the world. It's a festival that turns Halifax – a charming and historic coastal city – into a week-long international hotspot for the arts, abuzz with film lovers and filmmakers alike.Offering a first-look at the best international films of the festival season, FIN is a champion of local filmmakers, committed to bridging the gap. We attract some of the biggest players in film, media and music from around the world. All of our film selections are chosen with our community in mind and our special events are designed to bring us all together. A not-for-profit organization, FIN depends heavily upon its strong ties to the surrounding and thriving arts community.FIN began as a small grassroots operation in St. John's, Newfoundland in 1981, relocating to Halifax the following year. Just three decades later, FIN has blossomed into one of Canada's premier film festivals. Whether for industry folk, unabashed movie fans or curious onlookers, FIN offers countless opportunities to engage through film. Today's FIN Festival is now a year-round celebration, growing beyond our eight-day cornerstone event in September to include: FIN Partners, FIN Kids, FIN Outdoor, FIN Makers and FIN Campus.Together, as a filmmaking community, we watch movies, we talk movies, and we make movies.
