Thank you for your support. We take your gifts seriously, and we make every effort to maximize your investment in our organization. We are proud to consistently bring the local community the best in quality and quantity of international cinema including numerous world and international premieres and unique opportunities for the public to interact with world-renowned talent and industry representatives.

The continuing desire from our local community for international and local cinema is evident and the value, impact, and support of our Hawai’i community in recognizing and highlighting filmmakers and their works is also clear.  We appreciate your continued support during this time.

At HIFF, we are committed to being the premiere cinematic event in the Pacific, presenting, cultivating and nurturing emerging and established cinema-makers and enthusiasts from the Asia-Pacific Rim. We take pride in the fact that HIFF is the only international Festival that highlights and supports Hawaii-based and kānaka maoli voices from our community’s rich and diverse independent film scene.
