Step #1 - Register
Once you've been named an OFFICIAL SELECTION to IIFC 2025 it's important to complete your registration. But first, please read through each section, so you understand the steps, including submitting nomination considerations as well as extra screening requests and promotions. When you've read through everything, please click the "Register Now" button at the end. .
Step #2 - Nominate
Your film has had a lot of eyes on it from its journey to being an Official Selection of IIFC2025. We are in the process of gathering our judges' suggested nominations. If you'd like us to give extra consideration to any of your cast or crew, be sure to fill out the nomination section of the registration form. It's important that you spell their names accurately as well as their contact information. Trust us, they'll appreciate it!
Step #3 - Exposure
As we all know, promotion is the name of the game when it comes to films. Make your film stand out from the rest to attract the attention of our festival goers, judges, media and distributing partners. There are options for EXTRA SCREENINGS and PROMOTIONS. We have something to fit every budget. Oh, and all prices are 20% off until January 21st!
