San Francisco Latino Film Festival

The International Latino Film Festival – San Francisco Bay Area (ILFF) was created to give voice to Latino cultural expression through the powerful medium of film. The ILFF began as a grassroots organization 10 years ago, presenting just 10 films at a single venue. In 2007 the Festival will present almost 100 films at 14 venues throughout the Bay Area.

Presented by the International Latino Film Society , the 11th Festival takes place November 2 – 18, 2007 spanning eight Bay Area cities San Francisco, Redwood City, San Jose, San Rafael, San Bruno, Berkeley and Sacramento.

The Festival showcases the best in new international Latino cinema, applauds emerging talent and pays tribute to celebrated Latino actors, directors and producers. The films represent a rich and varied view of the social, political and economic perspectives of Latinos both here in the United States and across the continents. From documentaries covering the issues surrounding Latino immigrant farm workers to films that represent the Jewish experience in the Hispanic world to the Women in Film series, the programs presented by the ILFF are a valuable cultural resource for the Bay Area community. “*
