Reviews & Testimonials

We love feedback! We want to make KIFF a truly wonderful experience for filmmakers and film lovers alike. Here's just a taste of the feedback we've recieved from last years' festival.

James Card

KIFF is, without doubt, one of the best film festivals I have ever attended. Communication from the whole team was excellent throughout - both in the lead up to, and the festival itself. Everyone was so welcoming, enthusiastic, and supportive. My only regret is that I do not yet have another film ready to submit for next year... but I'm sure I'll go along anyway. Cannot recommend KIFF highly enough.

Dilesh Korya

Really lovely Festival. Staff and support exceptional. Thanks for screening my film! Really enjoyed being there and meeting the other filmmakers. All the thought and effort made to help emerging filmmakers.

Jenna Harder

Fantastic festival! Especially for being so young! It’s only going to get better. Wonderful programming, great venue, lovely people. As a Canadian filmmaker, a lot of the industry panels were pretty UK industry centered which is to be expected, I still learned a TON from the pitching panel. Q&A’s were great. Screening quality was fantastic and well attended.

🎬 A huge THANK YOU to our incredible volunteers! 🙌

This year’s Kingston International Film Festival wouldn’t have been possible without the passion, energy, and dedication of our amazing volunteer team. From managing venues to welcoming guests, these 34 fantastic individuals were at the heart of it all 💛

Here are just a few of the wonderful people who helped bring the festival to life — we truly couldn’t do it without you!

#KIFF2025 #ThankYouVolunteers #FilmFestivalMagic #CommunityPowered #KingstonFilmFestival #KIFF

A packed, action-packed weekend of films, workshops, networking, Q&As, awards, and so much more — the 4th year of KIFF brought incredible energy and unforgettable moments ✨

Let’s look back at some highlights from the festival! 🎥🥳
